USMNT's Yunus Musah Scores Again in Copa Del Rey

Something about the Copa del Rey brings out the goals in Yunus Musah.

The U.S. men's national team and Valencia midfielder scored for a second straight game in this season's competition—and a third time in his career—by tallying on a back-heel finish in the first minute of what wound up being an extra-time triumph over fourth-tier Arenteiro in the second round.

The goal was certainly not a clinical masterpiece, with a cross being allowed to bounce through the Arenteiro box uncleared before one attempt popped it up into the air. Musah alertly back-heeled it inside the near post to open the scoring.
