The Luxemburg-Casco soccer team could not generate the offense needed to get past one of their chief rivals on Thursday, falling to Freedom 1-0.

The Irish scored their lone tally in the first half and were able to hold off the Spartans the rest of the way. It marks the third time in four games the opposing team has been able to post a clean sheet against the Spartans.

The Spartans are back in action on Tuesday against Denmark.
