Sporting Kansas City Academy forward Osvaldo Cisneros (No. 17 pictured above) helped the United States U-15 Boys’ National Team to two victories and a shootout win this week at the prestigious Torneo delle Nazioni in Gradisca, Italy.
Cisneros’ successful tournament campaign was highlighted by a goal in the USA’s 3-0 defeat of India to open Group C action last Sunday. After the Americans lost 1-0 to Slovenia and 3-0 to Mexico in the final two group stage contests, Cisneros and the U.S. bounced back in the consolation bracket.
On Thursday, the U.S. battled England to a 1-1 draw before prevailing 5-3 on penalty kicks.
