WSOC Cards Fall in Home in Final Regular Season Game
Virginia Tech used a late first half goal off a corner kick to score the only goal of the match. Jordan Hemmen found space off the set piece by Emily Gray to knock the shot in and put the Hokies on top.
The Hokies controlled the pace of the game for the full 90 minutes. They used a speedy attack that swarmed to the ball to force the Cards into turnovers galore. Louisville's offense relies on the sidelines to help move the ball up the field before passing into or near the box for a shot. The Hokies hovered near the sidelines to disrupt the Cards.
Louisville outshot Virginia Tech 8-3 although it seems those numbers are flipped after witnessing the game unfold. Virginia Tech's keeper recorded saves on all three of Louisville's shots on goal, with one of them nearly touching the line as the goalkeeper backpedaled near the goal line. Virginia Tech's lone shot on goal went in, leaving Gabby Kouzelos with a goose egg in the saves column.
Emina Ekic had one of Louisville's better chances at scoring on a free kick a few yards outside of the box. Her shot sailed mere inches to the outside of the right post. Taylor Kerwin also had a shot dead center on the goal but a backpedaling goalkeeper kept the ball out of the goal by little more than a hair.Louisville looked to have an opportunity for the equalizer on what was an obvious handball in the box. A no-call by the official brought fans to their feet in an uproar. However, you can't put the blame of a loss on the officials when Louisville was just outplayed.
Louisville falls to 12-5-0 overall and finishes with a conference mark of 6-4-0. The Cards finish tied for fifth with Clemson. A win, however, would've put Louisville in the top four and in position to host the first round. The Cards will be seeded #6 in the ACC Tournament because of the points differential scored during the regular season. Clemson's was higher, the Tigers get the #5 seed.
The Cards will begin play against #3 Virginia on Sunday in Charlottesville at 1 p.m. Viewing options to be announced later, although we assume it will be ACC Network Extra. Our post-game with Karen Ferguson Dayes is below:
