After the Lions took the lead on a first-half penalty kick, junior <a href=\"https:\/\/pennathletics.com\/sports\/mens-soccer\/roster\/jack-ryan-jeremiah\/25811\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"25811\" target=\"_blank\">Jack-Ryan Jeremiah<\/a> converted from the spot to bring the Quakers level. Penn controlled much of the attacking play, finishing with a 15-5 advantage in shots, but neither team found a winner as the match ended in a draw.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Quaker Notemeal<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n*Penn moved to 6-3-5 overall and 2-1-3 in Ivy League play with the draw, while Columbia moved to 5-4-5 overall and 0-3-3 in conference action.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">*Junior <a href=\"https:\/\/pennathletics.com\/sports\/mens-soccer\/roster\/jack-ryan-jeremiah\/25811\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"25811\" target=\"_blank\">Jack-Ryan Jeremiah<\/a> scored his fourth goal of the season, converting a penalty kick in the 33rd minute to bring Penn level. All of the senior&#8217;s scores this season have come from the penalty dot. Jeremiah now sits second on the squad with nine points.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">*Columbia opened the scoring in the 17th minute when Jack McDaid converted a penalty kick.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">*Penn outshot Columbia, 15-5, including an 8-3 advantage in the first half. The Quakers put six shots on target compared to three for the Lions.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">*The Quakers held a 10-3 advantage in corner kicks, including eight in the first half.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">*Senior goalkeeper <a href=\"https:\/\/pennathletics.com\/sports\/mens-soccer\/roster\/phillip-falcon-iii\/25807\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"25807\" target=\"_blank\">Phillip Falcon III<\/a> made two saves in 90 minutes of action.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">How It Happened<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Penn generated an early opportunity from a corner kick, but the ensuing header sailed high. The Quakers continued to threaten through set pieces, as a free kick from <a href=\"https:\/\/pennathletics.com\/sports\/mens-soccer\/roster\/joaquin-niehenke\/25817\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"25817\" target=\"_blank\">Joaquin Niehenke<\/a> found <a href=\"https:\/\/pennathletics.com\/sports\/mens-soccer\/roster\/marco-bottene\/25802\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"25802\" target=\"_blank\">Marco Bottene<\/a> for a header that was saved by Columbia goalkeeper Kai Zeruhn.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Columbia responded with a dangerous opportunity of its own when a cross into the penalty area found Henning Myrvang, whose header was caught by Falcon III.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Lions broke through in the 17th minute after a handball in the penalty area resulted in a penalty kick. McDaid stepped up and converted the attempt to give Columbia a 1-0 lead.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Penn continued to press for an equalizer, earning a series of corner kicks and creating chances in the attacking third. Bottene tested Zeruhn with a low shot from outside the penalty area, but the Columbia goalkeeper made the save to preserve the Lions&#8217; advantage.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Quakers found their equalizer in the 33rd minute. After Penn earned a penalty kick, Jeremiah stepped up and converted from the spot to level the match at 1-1. Penn continued to apply pressure before halftime, generating additional corner kicks but unable to take the lead.<\/p>\n<p>The Quakers carried their momentum into the second half. Niehenke tested Zeruhn with an early attempt, and Penn continued to threaten as Jeremiah collected a loose ball near the top of the penalty area and sent a shot just wide.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Shortly afterward, Dahlen received a pass in space and drove toward the box, but his hard shot missed the target. Penn continued to build attacking opportunities, with Sullivan sending an attempt over the crossbar following a quick move forward.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Quakers maintained their advantage in possession and chances as the half progressed. <a href=\"https:\/\/pennathletics.com\/sports\/mens-soccer\/roster\/michael-howard\/25810\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"25810\" target=\"_blank\">Michael Howard<\/a> created a dangerous opportunity inside the penalty area but sent his shot high, while Penn continued to search for a go-ahead goal through its attacking pressure.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Despite several promising opportunities and a significant advantage in shots and corner kicks, Penn could not find the decisive finish. Columbia&#8217;s defense held firm through the closing minutes, and the match ended in a 1-1 draw.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Up Next<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Quakers close out the regular season on the road against Princeton at 1 p.m.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\">#FightOnPenn<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; Next Game: at Princeton 11\/7\/2026 | 3:00 PM &#13; Nov. 07 (Sat) \/ 3:00 PM&#13;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":954143,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[440],"tags":[49,48,561,82],"class_list":["post-954142","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/954142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=954142"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/954142\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/954143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=954142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=954142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=954142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
