How To Watch SEC Soccer Tournament Semifinal: Alabama vs. Vanderbilt

Winner advances to play in the championship game in Pensacola, Fla., against either South Carolina or Georgia.

After defeating the Mississippi State Bulldogs 2-0 in the SEC quarterfinals, the Alabama Crimson Tide will take on the Vanderbilt Commodores in a tournament semifinal matchup Thursday evening. 

The winner advances to the championship game. The loser heads home early and waits for the NCAA Tournament pairings to be announced. 

The Commodores narrowly upset the No. 4 Arkansas Razorbacks in a quarterfinal contest that was tied through regulation and overtime Tuesday night. The winner had to be decided via penalty kicks, where Vanderbilt edged the Razorbacks 5-4 to claim the victory.

On the Crimson Tide side, the offense stayed in attack mode during its quarterfinal, totaling 23 shots including 13 on target. 

Two of those goals found the back of the net, the first being from Ashlynn Serepca as she buried one right in front of the goal, then Macy Clem poked the ball over the goal line before the defense could clear it out. It was so close a referee review had to confirm the goal.

The winner of the Alabama-Vanderbilt matchup will earn a spot in the SEC Tournament championship, where the opponent will be the victor between No. 6 Georgia and No. 2 South Carolina earlier Thursday.
