Alabama soccer rebounded in a massive way on Sunday with a 3-0 road win over Missouri to break a two-game SEC losing streak. The Crimson Tide had dropped below .500 in conference play following disappointing losses to Kentucky and Oklahoma, but showed a sense of urgency against the Tigers, scoring two goals in the game's first seven minutes.

With Gianna Paul out due to injury, Larkin Thomason and Cameron Silva picked up the slack offensively, each scoring a goal in the opening minutes of the game. Madi Munguia recorded five saves in net and the Crimson Tide forced a late own goal to put the score at 3-0.

"Great way to bounce back after a couple of tough losses," head coach Wes Hart said. "Really happy with how we started the game. We came out flying and built an early lead. I felt we did a good job of continuing to be the aggressor and not just trying to sit on the lead and hang on."

Alabama now heads home for the Iron Bowl of Soccer against Auburn on Friday. The game will kick off at 7 p.m. CT and air on SEC Network+.
