  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Jack McGlynn apparently loves scoring on long-range stunners.

    The U.S. international midfielder notched his second international goal, in his fifth USMNT cap, on an unbelievable rocket blast - beating Berke Özer from 20 yards out. The play which was sparked by Malik Tillman, gave the U.S. a 1-0 lead within the first minute.

    McGlynn scored his first USMNT goal from even further out, a 30-yard blast against Venezuela in the team's January camp.

    Mauricio Pochettino and the U.S. started in the best way possible - with a much-needed goal. The team is missing several regulars because of injury or Club World Cup commitments, and has a lineup stocked with MLS players.
