WEEKLY WRAP: 2.19 through 2.25.2018: Goals Galore in Germany & Spain

This is one of those weeks when you look and just say wow! Our guys are kicking some butt out there. 8 Goals in Germany / 5 Goals in Spain only emphasize how successful our players were this past week.

Shout Outs are due to so many but lets pick the most outstanding first; Mukwelle Akale in Spain had his best showing ever with 2 Goals and an Assist, Ian Claus had a 2 Goal game and that makes 5 goals in his last 2 matches in Germany, also in Germany Nick Taitague played twice and scored in each appearance in Germany. Andrija Novakovich, often mentioned here, had a Goal and an Assist in the Netherlands.

No less important, a shout out to Keaton Parks who scored in Portugal and saved his team from defeat. Shaq Moore scored the winning Goal in Spain in a game that had 2 of the 3 goals scored by Americans, Maurice Malone scored again, a winner, in Germany and Timothy Chandler scored his 2nd for Frankfurt in one of his best seasons in Germany.
