Box Score ALBANY, NY --- The Yeshiva University men's soccer team gave up two goals late at the Sage Colleges on Sunday afternoon at the ACP Complex in Albany, New York, losing 2-0.
It was a matchup of the last two teams in the Skyline Conference who were unbeaten against league opponents, and for the first 84 minutes the Maccabees gave the host Gators as good as they got, playing them evenly.
In the 85
th minute, a foul in the Yeshiva penalty area saw the visitors give up a penalty kick to sophomore Mu'Ammar Camara, putting Sage on the board. With seconds ticking away late, the Gators received an insurance goal from Peter Fabrykiewicz to put the game away. The Maccabees had four shots and a corner kick in the final two minutes of the match, but were unable to crack the Sage defense.
"Sage are a top-class team." Yeshiva head coach Josh Pranksky said afterwards. "We are proud of our guys for turning around after Thursday's hard work and producing another strong performance. It took a PK in the last few minutes to break us, and that's a strong positive to take away from the game as we move towards the rest of the season. Credit to the players for staying positive and working hard."
