WEEKEND WRAP: 3 Day Weekend Wrap - Features goals in Iceland and Philippines

So Copa and the Euro's are at their height and league games are few and far between, so I combined the 3 days of the weekend in hope that their was going to be enough action to write about - there was. 2 Goals, one in Iceland's 2nd Division and 1 (see note*) in the Philippines, where we have a few Americans (mostly dual's) playing. Joseph Jackson (West Virginia) started his first game in Ireland, and USYNT Romain Gall was on the right-side of a 0 - 7 dismantling of the opposition.

Here's the list......

GK Will Dieterich was in the 18 / DNP for Haukar as they won 4 - 3 over Keflavik

Johnatan Lama joined the action in the 68th minute as Huginn fell at home to Leiknir F. Huginn still looking to break out of their slump
