Their biggest “achilles heel” the past few years is defending against corner kicks. Every time I see them give up a corner, I cringe.

Biggest problem for UH has been defending, though. They can possess and score, but they cannot shutdown a team like you need to in soccer– it is a hard game to win by outscoring a team when you give away some goals.
