AUBURN, Ala. --- The Chattanooga women's soccer team fell 3-0 to the 11^th-ranked Auburn Tigers who extended the nation's longest active win streak to 10 games Sunday afternoon at the Auburn Soccer Complex.
 
"Tough to play at #11 in the nation," head coach Gavin McKinney said. "They are a very talented side. It was our intent to get behind the ball and make things as difficult as possible for them."
 
The Mocs move to 2-4 overall and Auburn improves to 5-0.
 
Chattanooga's defensive effort held the Tigers scoreless in the first half with keeper Abbey Saddler making four saves. She finished the match with six, one shy of her season high.
 
Chattanooga attacked into the Auburn defensive third several times and into the box, but were unable to get the all to the goal.
 
"For the most part we defended really well," McKinney said. "In possession we were a pass away from opening them up on a few occasions."
 
Auburn's first goal came off a corner kick by Anna Haddock. Her shot sailed just out of reach for Saddler and into the top right corner of the net for the eventual game winner.
 
The final two goals from Olivia Candelino were just seconds apart. She found the net with 8:52 remaining, shooting past Saddler who came out of the net in a save effort. Forty-two seconds later, Candelino once again, from almost the same spot, sent a shot into the upper left corner for the brace.
 
"Overall we are proud of the teams effort," McKinney said. "It will serve as a good learning tool going forward."
 
The Mocs remain on the road to take on North Alabama Friday night in Florence. The match is set to kick off at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time. Follow all the action online with links to live scoring and streaming video at GoMocs.com.
