Americans Abroad Weekend Rewind: Cappis, Sargent, and more

Christian Cappis was able to celebrate his first senior goal for Danish Superliagen side Hobro in Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Esbjerg.

Cappis got the start in midfield and played 80 minutes, while scoring on a wonderfully taken strike to help his side to a draw. It was Cappis’ first goal in his 22nd league appearance of the Superliga season. After a nice one-two with Edgar Babayan, Cappis sent a low left-footed shot into the bottom-right corner.

Esbjerg would level the match in the 85th minute, but ultimately it didn’t take away from Cappis’ performance. Fellow American Emmanuel Sabbi also started for Hobro, but only lasted 77 minutes before being replaced. Hobro are 12th in the 14-team Superliga with two matches remaining. Ultimately, they will be participating in the relegation playoffs later this Spring.

Josh Sargent scored his first Bundesliga goal since Oct. 2019 as Werder Bremen held on for a 2-2 league draw against Hertha Berlin. Sargent’s wonder strike in the third minute at the Olympiastadion gave Bremen and early advantage, but Berlin would fight back in the second half. Sargent now has three league goals this season.

Weston McKennie also got in on the scoring fun this weekend, scoring his first league goal of the season in Schalke’s 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim. The midfielder also completed 86% of his passes while winning six of 11 duels and making six recoveries.

Joel Sonora made an immediate impact in Arsenal de Sarandi’s Superliga win on Friday, scoring in a 4-0 win over Aldosivi. Sonora scored in the 78th minute with a strong finish in the same minute after coming on a second-half substitute. He also completed 90% of his passes in the victory.
