Men's U20 World Cup - South Korea
Josh Sargent does it again! Scoring the only goal today in a big win over Senegal. Tyler Adams and Luca De La Torre set up the game winner.
Game highlights. [VIDEO]
And in the other Group F game today Ecuador lost to Saudi Arabia which puts the USA in 1st place and their destiny in their own hands.
The 17 year old Sargent is making one helluva splash. After dominating at the U17 CONCACAF championship last month he is now making his name on the international stage. And seeing as he is not attached to any professional team he must be the most wanted man at the tournament in South Korea right now.

- The team will need more centerbacks (and even more so, quality centerbacks) with World Cup qualifying and Gold Cup straight ahead, mean Calvo will miss games.
