Box Score

DELAND, Fla. – Florida Atlantic men's soccer held off a late comeback attempt from Stetson to earn a 3-2 road victory on Tuesday night. The Owls remained unbeaten in six matches away from home this season.

With the win, the Owls improve to 4-1-6 overall, while Stetson falls to 5-7-2 on the season.

It took just eight minutes for the Owls to open the scoring in the first half. Xavi Csato maneuvered into the box and went down under a challenge by the Stetson defender to draw a penalty kick. Csato converted the PK for his third goal of the season to give the Owls the early edge.

FAU doubled the advantage in the opening minute of the second half. Enzo Rabot's cross to the back post was headed home by Francesco Aiello to make it 2-0. The lead grew by one more in the 69th minute, when Michel Tentchou converted from just outside the box for his team-leading fifth goal of the season.

Stetson showed signs of life with two goals in the final 10 minutes of play, but it wasn't enough as the Owls hung on for the 3-2 victory.

Stetson outshot the Owls 9-6 with a 5-4 edge in attempts on target. The Owls gave minutes to 22 different players, including freshman goalkeeper Andy Dunn, who made his collegiate debut in the second half. Dunn and starter Alfred Mikkelsen combined for three saves.
