FAYETTEVILLE - Arkansas pushed top-ranked Florida State to the limit and allowed just one goal while missing on a few scoring opportunities in a 1-0 loss to the Seminoles at Razorback Field on Sunday.

Arkansas was playing a No. 1-ranked team for the first time in program history. FSU (6-0-0), which has the top spot in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America/Continental Tire poll, scored at the 16:11 mark and that's the only goal the Seminoles needed.

The Razorbacks generated several scoring chances and just missed on tying or possibly taking the lead.

Head coach Colby Hale was pleased with his team's effort, but he wants the Razorbacks to finish those opportunities.

"We can't just play hard and be happy," he said. "Yes, we played hard, but we still lost. We have to keep growing and concentrate on the little things. You can see the chances for goals happening, but we have to put them in."
