WEEKEND WRAP: 7/17/2016 Sunday Features Goals by Boyd and Gall


A day off returns from injury, a full plate of Finland football and friendlies.

Reported late last week that USMNT Terrence Boyd was back in training, well today he hit the fiels and a goal to announce his return. There are a few weeks to go till the start of the season and RB Leipzig will be happy to have Terrence back, I'm sure. Conor O'Brien is back in action for Horsens in Denmark's Superliga, he went 90 today, lets hope he stay's healthy.

3 Goals today, Terrence Boyd in a blow-out win by RB Leipzig over amateur competition, Romain Gall gets another as his team wins 2 - 0 and Marc Heider scored again - that's 2 games 2 goals for his new team Osnabruck.

Goalkeeper Scott Angevine almost got another shut-out today for YPA who have now officially turned things around from a 0-1- 5 start, with 6 wins - amazing!!

OK, to the list;

Conor O'Brien started for Horsens in their Denmark Superliga opener as they visit Aalborg. Conor went 90 as it looked like Horsens would open with a win, but Aalborg hit in the 89th minute and the game ended 1 - 1.

USYNT Romain Gall started for Nykoping in Sweden's Division 1 (Norra) as they hosted Umea. Romain went 90 and Scored Nykopings 2nd goal in a 2 - 0 win.


In a friendly, against Oberliga side FC Frankfurt, Terrence Boyd Scored the 8th goal for RB Leipzig in a 0 - 10 drubbing. Great that Terence is back and playing, he still has a month to get ready for the season


Marc Heider (90) Scored for Osnabruck as they hosted Porto in a friendly. The goal came early in the first half, unfortunately Osnabruck could not hold the lead and succumbed in the end 1 - 2


In Germany's Oberliga (Bayern Nord) Eric Friedlander came off the bench in the 75th minute for SpVgg Ansbach as they drew 1 - 1 with TSV Großbardorf. It was both teams opener of the new season (and completed round 1 of the league)


Finland had a full plate of games today....


In Veikkausliiga, League leaders Mariehamn and Brian Span (85) relied on 2 first half goals as they visited PK-35 Vanta. Mariehamn are 3 points clear at the top with the 0 - 2 win


Rovaniemi and Will John (16) took an early lead against Lahti, and then found themselves battling for the 1 - 2 win


In Ykkonen, Ekenas and GK Tim Murray (90) hosted Haka and Etchu Tabe (79) in an exciting game that saw Ekenas score twice (81,83) in 3 minutes late in the 2nd half. Ekenas won the game 2 - 1 for their 3rd win in a row


KPV and Mike Banner (90) who started the year out so well have now lost 5 in a row, including today's 3 - 0 loss to Oulu. Obviously they are slipping out of contention fast


Daniel Stevens came off the bench at the 78th minute as GrIFK lost 2 - 0 at #1 TPS Turku


In Kakkonen (Group C) GBK with Lawrence Smith (90) and Chris Corcoran (90) visited MuSa and suffered a 2 - 1 loss


GK Scott Angevine looked like he would get another shut-out, but an 84th minute goal by TP-47 put an end to that plan, but YPA and Scott won again, that's six straight wins for them (after 12 games YPA started with 1 draw - 5 loss)


Jossimar Sanchez (90) and Narpes Kraft visited VIFK and came away with all 3 points in a 0 - 2 win, a good result for Narpes who are (were) hovering above the drop zone


In Sweden Allsvenskan, Orebro and Brendan Hines-Ike (45) are a little shaky right now, they are maintaining their 4th spot but have only gotten 6 points from a possible 15 (5 games) Brendan came off the bench and played the second half and picked up a yellow card as Orebro could only manage a 0 - 0 draw.


In Norway's Tippeligaen, GK Ethan Horvath (90) and Molde were held at home by Start and Alex De John (90) in a back and forth game that ended at 2 - 2


Cole Grossman went 90 as Stabaek hit back quickly after going down 0 - 1 to Brann and GK Alex Horwath (in 18/DNP) in a game that ended all tied up at 1 - 1. Stabaek are now above the drop zone


Gorica started their season in Slovenia and won 2 - 0. Theo Wilson was not in the squad today, but I am sure he will find his way on to the 1st team.
