Marcel Costly had an assist to add to his goal and Lyndon Gooch has been trying to put some energy into his team this week, and also getting an assist. The season has yet to start in Sweden's lower leagues, but don't tell Jeff Gal that, as he gets a commanding clean sheet in a friendly.
Some other news of note. US U18 Owen Otasowie got his first start for Wolves U23, Zyen Jones played the 2nd half of a friendly for Schalke U19 and Josh Sargent played for Bremen U19 in a tournament and was their hero as he scored 5 goals, and helped his team to 3rd place.
<EDITOR NOTE> There will not be a "Wrap" next weekend - I have surgery scheduled this week and will be thinking about my health instead of soccer. Hopefully I will be well enough to continue the following week. Thanks for your understanding.
OK! to the lists.
