No. 1 no more: men’s soccer team loses opener on road to Notre Dame, 2-1

UCLA men's soccer team went into its season opener against no. 9 Notre Dame as the consensus no. 1-ranked team in America. That’s probably over.

Trailing 1-0 for most of the game thanks to a Joseph Lapira goal in the first half for the Irish, Chance Myers scored a tying goal with 38 seconds to play in regulation, but the Bruins lost, 2-1, on a goal by Alex Yoshinaga just three minutes into the overtime period.

The game was played in Bloomington, Indiana as part of the adidas/IU Credit Union Classic.

UCLA will face no. 7 Indiana in the concluding game of the tournament on Sunday.
