Sergiño Dest Provides Assist as USA Beat Chile 4-2

Sergiño Dest played an important role as the United States defeated Chile 4-2 in an international friendly on Tuesday night.

The PSV player started the match as a winger and made an immediate impact, providing the assist for Sebastian Berhalter to open the scoring in the first half.

Chile equalised before the break before taking a 2-1 lead shortly after half-time. The United States responded quickly, with Julian Hall restoring parity at 2-2.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side then completed the comeback by scoring twice late in the match. The United States went ahead in the 72nd minute before Mathis Albert sealed the victory in stoppage time.

Albert made history with his goal, becoming the youngest player ever to score for the United States at 17 years and 131 days old.

Dest’s evening ended in the 63rd minute when he was replaced by former PSV player Malik Tillman. The versatile PSV player therefore watched the final two goals from the bench.

The United States will now continue their international schedule with matches against neighbouring countries Mexico and Canada, with both Dest and Tillman involved in the squad.
