Missouri soccer showcased its most dominant performance of the 2026 season, flying past Northern Illinois in a 4-0 rout on Thursday, August 27 in Columbia. Junior midfielder Landis Canada led the way with her first collegiate brace, while Missouri's freshmen class continued to impress across the board.
The Tigers took the lead after 22 minutes of play, when junior midfielder Landis Canada drove the ball into the back of the net from point-blank range. The ball bounced around the box in the resulting calamity from a corner kick, and Canada finished it comfortably — finding her first goal of the season.
Freshman Lana Adams doubled the Tigers' lead in the 66th minute. She found her first collegiate goal by dancing around several Huskies defenders before rocketing the ball into the back of the net from 20 yards out. This broke the seal for the Tigers and allowed them to find their rhythm in front of the goal.
"It's mentality and execution," head coach Stefanie Golan said post-match. "I think that the women had the right mentality and they executed, and you know that's really what those opportunities come down to."
They continued this momentum when, just moments later, Canada found her second goal of the affair, knocking in a header from a corner kick in the 67th minute. The single-game brace matches her total goals in her collegiate career thus far.
