Men's Soccer Wins 4-3 Thriller Over Gwynedd Mercy

MADISON, N.J. – The FDU-Florham men's soccer team pulled out a win in a thriller of a match Tuesday night as the Devils topped Gwynedd Mercy 4-3 at home. 

DEVILS HIGHLIGHTS HOW IT HAPPENED 
  • After controlling much of the first 15:00 of the match with nine shots from the Devils, Gwynedd Mercy found its way onto the board with an unassisted goal from Gunnar Christensen to take a 1-0 lead in the 18'. 
  • Just 10:00 later in the 28', Chauhan found the back of the Griffins net after four wide shots and knotted the match at 1-1. 
  • Despite 19 shots from FDU in the first half, the Devils only netted one goal. 
  • In the second half, Zaku put FDU ahead 2-1 on an assist from Ferreira in the 69' but the Griffins quickly tied the match once again in the 71' on a goal from Cillian Berkery. 
  • Gwynedd took its second lead of the night with its third goal in the 78' on a goal from Ryan Burns, but FDU tied it once more after a penalty kick goal from Balbuena in the 79'.
  • Then in the 83', an FDU throw in led to a loose ball tapped by Vincenzo Gancio to Adame who finished the play and netted the game winner for the Devils. 
GAME NOTES
  • This is the second time this season the Devils have held an opponent to zero corner kicks. 
  • Tuesday's game featured the most shots, shots on goal, and corner kicks for the Devils this season. 
  • This was the first time FDU tallied 39 or more shots in a game since totaling 47 against Gwynedd in 2024.
