EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Juan Agudelo did it again.
Trailing Argentina at halftime, Agudelo entered the game as a substitue and scored the equalizing goal in a 1-1 draw at New Meadowlands Stadium. The goal marked the third time in as many games that Agudelo's come off the bench and made an impact for the United States.
It wasn't just his goal that earned rave reviews. His 45-minute performance was solid for the most part, as he helped the U.S. team maintain some possession against the world's best player in Lionel Messi and an Argentina side that dominated the flow of the game in the first half.
As a result of his goal and performance against Argentina, Agudelo could earn his first ever start for the United States when it takes on Paraguay at LP Field in Nashville, Tennessee on Tuesday.
Here's Agudelo's second international goal:
