The goals just keep on coming for U.S. men’s national team midfielder Weston McKennie.
McKennie scored his fifth goal of 2026 to help kickstart Juventus’ comeback 2-2 draw vs. Lazio on Sunday. The American midfielder now has seven goals on the season, which is a new career-high for McKennie in a single season.
Lazio took a 1-0 lead into halftime thanks to Pedro’s second goal of the season. The 38-year-old winger got the benefit of a fortunate deflection, watching as his near-post shot snuck in.
Gustav Isaksen quickly doubled Lazio’s advantage two minutes into the second half, adding pressure on Luciano Spalletti’s men.
McKennie cut Juventus’ deficit in half before the hour mark, glancing a close-range header in at the near post.
Juventus would rally to earn one point at the death, using Pierre Kalulu’s powerful header to make it 2-2 in second-half stoppage time.
McKennie played 84 minutes in the match, helping the Bianconeri extend their home unbeaten streak to 16 matches in Serie A play.
Up next for McKennie and Juventus is a trip to league-leading Inter Milan on Saturday as they continue to push for a top-four finish.
