Yanks Abroad: Jan George back on the score-sheet

The injuries have piled up and we have a shorter list to review this week, but there were a lot of positives for the United States National Team players overseas. Jan George got on the score-sheet, as well as Tim Weah in a mid-week clash for Celtic.

Over in Germany, Christian Pulisic, Tyler Adams, & Weston McKennie were all still out of the lineup as they recover from injuries.

Sunderland are level on points with 2nd place (automatic promotion) Barnsley, but they have two valuable games-in-hand.
