Emerson In Action

After coming on as a late substitute in the United States U17s’ 4-4 draw with Brazil, Emerson Hyndman was given a starting berth for their next game against Turkey on Friday.

The midfielder showed some nice touches in the centre of the pitch before his withdrawal just after the hour mark as the States went on to win 4-1.

And he was in action again two days later when he came on after 70 minutes of their 4-3 defeat by Portugal in front of 4,500 people at the Premier Sports Campus in Florida.
