Americans Abroad Weekend Rewind: Robinson, Ream, and more

1 Shares

Wigan Athletic came into Good Friday’s showdown with Leeds United, posting the worst road record in the EFL Championship. Despite playing with 10-men for the final 75+ minutes, the Latics dug deep and frustrated Leeds to run away 2-1 winners.

Antonee Robinson put in a masterclass performance at left-back, winning eight duels, making four interceptions, making six clearances, and winning two tackles. Even with 36 shots in total for Marcelo Bielsa’s side, Leeds were unable to take advantage of being a man up and suffered their second loss in the month of April.

As for the 21-year-old Robinson, he now has 23 appearances on the season and helped Wigan inch to five points clear of the relegation zone with three matches remaining.

Elsewhere, Tim Ream and Fulham earned their first away win of the season in league action while Cameron Carter-Vickers and Swansea City held off Rotherham United. Weston McKennie got the start for Schalke but was unable to help the side from conceding five goals against Hoffenheim. Andrija Novakovich left Fortuna Sittard’s match with an injury, Ian Harkes continued to rack up minutes with Dundee United, and Ventura Alvarado was sent off for Necaxa.

  1. Good to see that Pulisic and McKennie ae making progress back from injury. Surprised Adams is still out. Of the 3 McKennie’s injury looked the worst when it happened.

  2. Why can’t Desevio Payne and Emerson Hyndman get playing for their clubs? I feel like the Dutch league should not be hard for him to break in and make the bench.

    • The simple answer is they aren’t good enough. Both have also had a series of injuries since we saw them featuring for USYNT so it may also be they haven’t progressed as we had hoped. Ariyibi couldn’t make the field in the Championship but has put up similar numbers to Hyndman.
