Going into the second scoreless, John Poncy connected off a pass from Oscar Pereira to put the Black Knights in front. Pereira doubled the lead with a strike from distance in the 59th minute but even with the 2-0 lead the Army defense had to do a lot of work to secure the victory.

Temple appeared to be heading toward a disappointing draw with a minute left in double overtime when disaster struck and Memphis struck smash and grab style to take all three points and hand the Owls their second straight conference loss Wednesday afternoon.
“When we look at the video, there’s going to moments are teachable and moments that are cringeworthy,” head coach Brian Rowland said after the 2-1 loss. “There’s going to be a lot of positives, or close to positives, of how we were able to dominate that game apart from the scoreboard. I think we are going to have to recognize there are areas to improve, but we certainly understand that on another day that game could’ve been different.”
