Aaronson Scores in Leeds Draw With Man United as USMNT Contenders Deliver Mixed Weekend

His resurgence strengthens his case for a March U.S. camp call-up before late-May World Cup decisions.

Overview

Brenden Aaronson struck in the 62nd minute to seal a 1-1 result for Leeds United against Manchester United, extending Leeds’ unbeaten run to seven matches.
After a November benching and intense criticism, Aaronson has reclaimed a starting role with four consecutive starts and a team-leading three assists.
Reporting indicates his current form puts him on track for a March U.S. training-camp invite ahead of coach Mauricio Pochettino’s final World Cup roster in late May.
Weston McKennie scored his first Serie A goal of the season in Juventus’ 1-1 draw with Lecce, adding to a productive recent stretch.
Antonee Robinson played 90 minutes in Fulham’s 2-2 draw with Liverpool, Christian Pulisic came on late in AC Milan’s 1-0 win, and injuries to Tyler Adams and Chris Richards limited other Premier League involvement.
