The USF men’s soccer team has high expectations this season.
The Bulls showed why on Saturday night, upsetting No. 1-ranked Akron, 2-1, in their final preseason match.
USF’s Bernardo Anor scored two goals and goalkeeper Jeff Attinella was stellar in front of the goal, recording 10 saves.
The Bulls, ranked 13th entering the regular season, scored the game-winner on Anor’s goal in the 75th minute.
Yep, it’s only the preseason, but you’ve got to think tonight’s win over the top-ranked Zips is a huge confidence builder for the Bulls. Akron lost to Virginia in the NCAA title match last season.
USF returns to the field on Wednesday in the regular-season opener against Florida Gulf Coast at 7:30 p.m.
