No. 16 Syracuse shutout for 1st time this season in 1-0 loss to No. 4 Clemson

first_img Published on October 17, 2015 at 11:47 pm Contact Connor: cgrossma@syr.edu | @connorgrossman Facebook Twitter Google+ Ian McIntyre knew the biggest question surrounding his team before this season. After losing nearly 70 percent of its offensive production from last season, the Syracuse head coach wondered if his team could net enough goals to contend.But through 14 games the Orange has averaged over two goals per game — yet to be shutout before Saturday— outpacing last year’s team that averaged 1.76 goals each contest.Defenses haven’t been able to pinpoint an offensive ringleader with six players boasting three or more goals. Saturday night SU’s versatile offense finally met its match in Clemson — who’s defense has the second-fewest goals allowed in the Atlantic Coast Conference.“Sometimes it’s a bitter pill to swallow,” McIntyre said. “…I thought we had enough chances to kind of get something tonight.”So often this season Syracuse bullied teams in time of possession, but the No. 4 Tigers (11-1-2, 4-1-1 ACC) didn’t give in to No. 16 SU (9-4-1, 2-3-1) and dealt the Orange its first shutout loss of the season, 1-0, on Saturday night at SU Soccer Stadium.AdvertisementThis is placeholder textThe lone goal of the match came off the foot of Kyle Murphy, who darted across an open field after stealing the ball away from SU’s Oyvind Alseth at midfield.The Syracuse midfielder wasn’t made available to speak to the media after the conclusion of the game.Alseth was part of the Orange’s midfield unit that relentlessly tried slotting passes up the field to forwards Chris Nanco and Ben Polk, with Nanco coming away with no shots on goal compared to Polk’s three.“At the end of the day it hurts,” Polk said. “It’s a real kick in the teeth.”Syracuse tried ambushing the Clemson offense early, with Nanco seemingly daring the Tigers’ defense to beat him in a foot race on through balls down the sideline.Nanco got tangled with Clemson defender Patrick Bunk-Anderse down the sideline in one of his first attempts to corral a through ball. Midfielder Julian Buescher tried rescuing Nanco and took the ball further into the corner, but two Tigers defenders turned him away and regained possession.It was just the beginning of SU’s battle of attrition on offense.“(Clemson) did a good job trying to limit some of the things we did,” McIntyre said.In the opening 45 minutes Syracuse pressed Clemson consistently, setting up seven corner kicks but forcing goalkeeper Andrew Tarbell to make only one save in that span.Alseth and midfielder Liam Callahan teamed up to try and split Clemson’s counterattack, ultimately forcing another corner in their bid. The ensuing kick came acutely off Alseth’s foot and rolled along the back line before a Tigers defender inadvertently tapped it out to set up another SU attempt.Buescher was behind the set piece this time, and sent the ball into the mosh of players in front of the net. It ricocheted to the top of the box where Kamal Miller fired a shot high over the net, causing him to cover his face in disgust.“In games like this, the fine details like set pieces can be the difference,” Polk said. “Today we didn’t capitalize.”The Orange gradually was cornered into less advantageous spots as the game progressed, with Polk at one point encircled by five Tigers defenders as he held the ball in front of the box for a brief moment.In one of the final climactic moments for Syracuse, Buescher reached down to tie his shoes before taking a free kick. The crowd of 1,582 rumbled its feet on the bleachers for the duration of Buescher’s housekeeping, reaching a crescendo as the Syracuse midfielder’s foot finally struck the ball.The mob of forwards, midfielders and even defenders moved leftward across the box as the kick curved that direction. With too much finesse on it, the ball landed before the mob of players could reach it and it bounced once before resting in the hands of Tarbell.It was emblematic of an uncharacteristic night from SU’s offense. When it seemed just one goal would provide a sense of finality, SU’s kicks eluded the back of the net.Said Polk: “(The ball) just didn’t go in for us today.” Commentslast_img read more

Your NRL club’s young gun to watch in 2017

first_imgBRISBANE – JAI ARROW: Former Australian schoolboy representative who only averaged 23 minutes in the 12 matches of his rookie year, but will likely to take on a more senior role following the retirement of Corey Parker.CANBERRA – CLAY PRIEST: Went from Sydney labourer to one of the real finds for the Raiders in attack during the second half of 2016 before injury cut short his finals hopes.CANTERBURY – ZAC WOOLFORD: Son of Canberra legend Simon, the dummy half could buck Des Hasler’s trend of four big forwards on the bench after moving from Canberra.CRONULLA – KURT CAPEWELL: Starred in four rookie games at the end of last season as the Sharks faced an injury crisis. Likely to come off the bench or could even start out wide in a reshuffle following the departure of Ben Barba.GOLD COAST – DAN SARGINSON: Sarginson arrives at the Titans as something of an unknown in the NRL but, at 23, the versatile back has already represented England three times, scored 44 Super League tries and helped Wigan to a grand final win.MANLY – BRIAN KELLY: Manly long laid claims as the best backline in the competition, but with Jamie Lyon retired and Steve Matai’s future in doubt, that era is long gone. Kelly possesses raw speed and will play a pivotal role in the centres.MELBOURNE – CURTIS SCOTT: A broken leg cruelled his rookie season but Craig Bellamy has confirmed he’ll add to his two matches in 2017.NEWCASTLE – DANIEL AND JACOB SAIFITI: There’s no lack of young talent at the Knights but the Saifiti twins were the most impressive in 2016.NORTH QUEENSLAND – COEN HESS: Played a starring role running angles for the Cowboys late last season following injury to Ethan Lowe.PARRAMATTA – BEVAN FRENCH: Certain to play his first full NRL season after Brad Arthur vowed to make the pacy French his fullback.PENRITH – TE MAIRE MARTIN: Showed his potential in the halves in 2016 before an injury cut his season short. Has since represented New Zealand.SOUTH SYDNEY – ANGUS CRICHTON: Impressed after debuting late last season by averaging more than nine metres per run after coming from the bench.ST GEORGE ILLAWARRA – LUCIANO LEILUA: Brother of Canberra’s Joey Leilua, he played with plenty of power in his five games late last season.SYDNEY ROOSTERS – CONNOR WATSON: Played in the halves for parts of 2016, but is likely to provide plenty of spark off the bench with Luke Keary arriving.WARRIORS – BUNTY AFOA: The 20-year-old added plenty of power to the Warriors’ pack last year, he showed tackle-busting talent in the four games he played and also scored two tries.WESTS TIGERS – JACOB LIDDLE: A year ago the 20-year-old was tucked behind Robbie Farah and Manaia Cherrington as a dummy-half, but both have gone opening up an opportunity for him.AAPlast_img read more
