The report says Goxhaj opened the scoring before the interval and struck again after the break to settle a contest in which both goalkeepers faced sustained pressure.
Goxhaj’s contribution proved decisive because Hasbrouck Heights did find a route back into the game. Lyndhurst, however, regained control before the hosts could complete their comeback.
The reported save totals underline how demanding the match became. Porras made 15 interventions for Lyndhurst, while Lucas Capozzoli recorded 12 saves for Hasbrouck Heights.
That level of activity points to an open contest rather than a one-sided away performance. Hasbrouck Heights created enough pressure to threaten the result, but Porras repeatedly kept Lyndhurst in front. Capozzoli was also heavily involved, although he could not prevent Goxhaj from converting twice.
The report puts Lyndhurst’s record at five wins, six defeats and three draws. That uneven campaign makes an away victory against a previously unbeaten opponent particularly valuable, even if it does not immediately transform the wider season picture.
For Hasbrouck Heights, the priority will be responding quickly. The first defeat of a season can test a team’s reaction, especially when it has conceded twice at home and failed to turn pressure into a result.
The next storyline is whether Lyndhurst can build momentum from this result, while Hasbrouck Heights will be seeking a composed response in its next NJIC Patriot League fixture.
