Gedion Zelalem |
The German born midfielder had been the subject of a tug-of-war
between his native Germany and the USA, before being granted eligibility by
FIFA to play for the States.
US boss Jurgen Klinsmann spoke before the decision was made, saying: "He is a special case. I think he is already at a
level that he can definitely play with the senior team."
Gunners youngster Gedion Zelalem showed off this piece of skill in the U20s World Cup, where he is
representing the USA.
His jinking run drew four New
Zealand defenders towards him, but they were powerless to stop him sliding an
inch-perfect ball through for an impressive assist.
It was Zelalem's first start for
the side, and he played an integral part as they won 4-0, sealing their place
in the knockout stages of the tournament in the process.
