Seventeen-year-old Mathis Albert set a new record as the youngest player to score for the U.S. Men's National Team. He achieved this milestone by scoring the fourth goal in a 4-2 victory, breaking the previous record held by Christian Pulisic.
During a recent match, 17-year-old Borussia Dortmund forward Mathis Albert made history for the U.S. Men's National Team (USMNT).
