WHAT HAPPENED? The 19-year-old sent a high-arcing cross into the Augsburg box for Felix Nmecha to knock into the net, securing a point for his team in the Bundesliga clash. It may not have been the sharpest ball, but it did the job and underlined his strong decision-making at a young age.

He has scored one and set up three more goals in the German top-flight in just 175 minutes of playing time since the World Cup, thus making a case that he should be a part of the USMNT's plans going forward.

Elsewhere, though, fellow rising USMNT star Malik Tillman netted twice for Rangers on Saturday.
