Russell Canouse makes Bundesliga debut in Hoffenheim victory

The pipeline of talent from southeastern Pennsylvania to Germany now appears complete.

Six weeks after the surprising Bundesliga debut of 17-year-old Hershey, Pennsylvania native Christian Pulisic at Borussia Dortmund, a fellow Keystone Stater from just 30 miles down the road has joined him.

Just yesterday we learned of Lancaster, PA-native Russell Canouse's promotion to TSG Hoffenheim's first team. Today he not only made the club's game day roster, but was quickly thrust into game action, making his Bundesliga debut.

Canouse got the call in the 67th minute of play with Hoffenheim leading VfL Wolfsburg 1-0.
