Chicago Fire Academy goalkeeper Damien Las (Norridge, Ill.) was yet again in action between the pipes for the U.S. U-17 Men's National Team in the 2017 Nike Invitational Friendlies in Lakewood Ranch, Fla. over the weekend.
Following a strong outing in the U.S.' opener against England last Wednesday, Las made way for Portland Timbers academy product Kashope Oladapo, who got the start against the Netherlands on on Friday. After going down 3-0 to the Dutch early on, Las was subbed into the match the 41st minute. The Dutch attack proved too potent, however, as they cruised to a 5-1 win over the U.
