We have reached the September International window following another so-so week from young Americans. Here’s what happened this week:
Netherlands
Andrija Novakovich - Striker, Reading FC (On Loan at Fortuna Sittard)
Novakovich had a big performance on Saturday in Fortuna Sittard’s 1-1 draw against FC Utrecht. Novakovich started again (he’s started each of their four games to start the season) and was the Man of the Match. In the 74th minute with Sittard down 1-0, Novakovich scored off a deflection following a scrum in the box.
In the 86th minute, Novakovich was nearly the hero when he struck the post on what would have been the game-winner.
