Sporting Kansas City forward Tyler Freeman and the United States U-16 Boys' National Team claimed the 2019 Nike International Friendlies title on Monday with a wild 3-2 victory over Turkey at the Premier Sports Campus in Bradenton, Florida.
Making his third appearance of the tournament, Freeman entered as a 55th-minute substitute with the Americans leading 2-1 and helped his side to an exciting win that sealed first place in the four-team field. The 16-year-old had previously started in the U-16 BNT's 3-3 draw with the Netherlands last Thursday before coming off the bench in Saturday's impressive 2-0 triumph over the USA U-16s.
