No. 12 Badgers drop to Ohio State

MADISON, Wis. – The women's soccer team closed out home regular season play today, Oct. 15, against Ohio State.

The Badgers dropped 1-0 for their second loss in the Big Ten.

How it happened

The team returned Erin McKinney to the net after sitting out for the Illinois match due to a red card.

Taking a more offensive approach in the first half, the Badgers saw possession mainly in Ohio State's territory.

Ella Ottey and Izzy Verdugo had good looks at the goal early in the half, but were stopped short by the Buckeye goalkeeper. In the 16th minute the Badgers saw back-to-back corner kicks.

Going into the half the game was tie at 0-0.

Starting the second 45, the Badgers received the kick, and eventually switched to a more defensive formation.

The Buckeyes had a free kick in in the 52nd minute, but stopped by the Badger defense.

In the 58th minute the Buckeyes capitalized to take the 1-0 lead.

McKinney tallied a save late in the game, which held off the Buckeyes for the remainder.

The Badgers continue to trail the Buckeyes in the all-time series 11-13-8.

Up next

The Badgers go on their final road trip of the regular season to face Maryland on Oct. 19 and No. 4 Penn State Oct. 22.
