Americans Abroad Weekend Rewind: Jonathon Amon, Bobby Wood, and more

2 Shares

American forward Jonathan Amon broke into the FC Nordsjælland first team back in November and quickly made an impact scoring a goal in his first month. After making only one appearance over the past two months, Amon showed zero signs of rust on Sunday afternoon. The 18-year-old netted his second senior goal in the team’s 3-1 loss to Superliagen leaders Brondby. A fast break by the visitors in the 16th minute was finished off by Amon who slotted into the bottom-left corner for a 1-0 Nordsjælland lead. The league leaders flexed their muscles however and rolled off three goals in the final 70 + minutes to earn the three points. For Amon, it is definitely a confidence building performance after grabbing his first start since Dec. 10th, 2017. Now, the 18-year-old will hope for continued playing time in hopes to build off of today’s outing.

Elsewhere, Bobby Wood sparked Hamburg to a 3-1 league win over Wolfsburg on Saturday, scoring the first of the goals. Christian Pulisic started for Borussia Dortmund in Sunday’s trip to Werder Bremen while John Brooks did not play for Wolfsburg. American midfielder Romain Gall scored a brace in Sundsvall’s league win in Sweden, continuing his strong run of form. Mix Diskerud started but was not among the goals in Goteborg’s victory over Hacken on Saturday. Matt Miazga was in Vitesse Arnhem’s starting XI for their lopsided home win over FC Twente.

Geoff Cameron remained a spectator for Stoke City as the Potters drew Liverpool away from home. DeAndre Yedlin had a strong performance for Newcastle United, but the home team fell to West Bromwich Albion. Quentin Westberg was in between the posts for Auxerre’s Ligue 2 win, while William Yarborough started for Club Leon in Liga MX.

  1. Any idea why Cameron is no longer a lock starter at Stoke?

    The lack of playing time makes Arena’s choice not to use him look reasonable.
