DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The Embry-Riddle men's soccer team returned to the pitch after nearly two weeks away as the Eagles would play their third match of 2017 on Saturday night against the Saint Leo Lions. The game went to double overtime tied at one apiece until the Lions scored in the 108^th minute to seal the 2-1 victory. 
 
Both team were getting a feel for each other in the first half as neither team had many opportunities to open up the scoring. There were six shots combined in the first half but none of them were on goal.
 
The first goal of the match came in the 60^th minute of play, with Daniel Gylfason scoring on a spectacular bicycle kick from the left side thanks to a throw in by Felix Lohmeyer.  The goal looked to be all the Eagles needed to secure the victory, and Magnus Magnusson twice appeared to give the home team a two-goal advantage with fantastic headers off a pair of corners, but the first was saved and the second glanced off the crossbar as the Eagles remained up by just one goal.
 
In the 86^th minute the Lions evened the score with a goal by Guillaume Campos as the ball bounced around the box as the Eagle defense attempted to clear it from danger.
 
Both teams would go scoreless the rest of regulation and the game would go to overtime.
 
Both the Eagles and the Lions had opportunities in the first overtime but failed to convert. The game would go to a second overtime still tied at 1-1.
 
In the 108^th minute of play, Campos received a pass inside the box from Armin Bajric and put it in just inside the right post, giving the Lions their first win of the season.
 
With the loss, the Eagles fall to 1-2 overall and 0-1 in SSC play on the year while the Lions move to 1-3, 1-0.
 
The Eagles will return to Embry-Riddle Soccer Stadium on Saturday, September 23, in battle against Lynn University. First touch is set to come at 7 p.m.
