Sunday marked the first time since late-August that Joe Scally went the distance for Borussia Moenchengladbach and it came at a crucial time for the Bundesliga side.
Scally helped Gladbach earn a 2-1 league victory over FC Heidenheim, moving it to 11th in the Bundesliga standings. The U.S. men’s national team fullback started on the right side of Gerardo Seoane’s squad and delivering a strong shift for the club.
Scally won five of his nine individual duels, drew two fouls, created one offensive opportunity, and made three interceptions. The 20-year-old now has nine league outings under his belt this season and could be on the verge of more with two matches left before the November international break.
Borussia Moenchengladbach next hosts FC Heidenheim in DFB Pokal play this week before traveling to Freiburg in Bundesliga action.
In England, Auston Trusty did not have a memorable return to Arsenal in Premier League play. Reggie Cannon started once again for QPR, but the London club lost at home to Leicester City.
In Germany, Gio Reyna earned his first start of the season for Borussia Dortmund. Kevin Paredes also featured for Wolfsburg while John Brooks and Hoffenheim defeated Stuttgart.
In Spain, Luca De La Torre went the distance but Celta Vigo lost at Girona.
In Italy, Weston McKennie and Juventus claimed a 1-0 win over Hellas Verona. Tim Weah also featured for the Old Lady. Christian Pulisic assisted once, but AC Milan conceded late in a 2-2 draw with Napoli.
Elsewhere, Alex Zendejas scored once for Club America in a shutout win over Monterrey. Gabriel Slonina registered his first clean sheet for Belgian club Eupen. Rokas Pukstas registered 90 minutes in Hajduk Split’s road victory in Croatia.
