Ipswich Town teenager Monty Patterson scored his first international goal on Tuesday night on his first start for New Zealand.
Nineteen-year-old Patterson pounced to score an equaliser in the 72nd minute as the All Whites came back to secure a draw against the United States in Washington DC.
He moved to England from New Zealand at the age of 13 following a successful trial at Ipswich and has developed through the youth ranks at Portman Road.
Progress was hit by a serious ankle injury last year which kept Patterson out for most of the season but he is a regular in the Under 23 development squad.
