Jansen Miller’s header lifts Indiana past Akron 2-1 at Bill Armstrong Stadium. Hoosiers next play at Denver on Saturday.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana’s men’s soccer team has started slow and finished strong all season. Why should its NCAA Tournament opener against Akron be any different?
Indiana out-shot Akron 14-6, including a 4-3 edge in shots on goal. The Zips doubled up the Hoosiers in corners with an 8-4 edge. Miller scored on his only shot of the game. Collins Oduro sent a curling cross into the 18-yard box from the left side of the box. Miller, who was marked, managed to get higher than the Akron defender. He headed across the face of the goal and into the bottom left corner.
Indiana presented more of an offensive threat in the second half. Shots by Sam Sarver, Tommy Mihalic, Josh Maher , Jack Wagoner and Justin Weiss put the Zips under pressure. Akron’s only chance to double its lead came from a Gaulmin low shot.
