Juventus' Americans, Weston McKennie and Tim Weah, came ready to play on Wednesday against Parma. Both of them found the back of the net to continue their impressive runs of form in a Game filled with goals.
McKennie was able to nab a Juventus equalizer and he was assitited by none other than Weah for the all-American connection. It was McKennie's first Serie A goal of the season to go along with one more in the Champions League against PSV. Weah would also add a goal of his own in the second half of play.

It was a great cross from the wing delivered by Weah and all McKennie had to do was ensure that the power was directed into the back of Zion Suzuki's net. With his header, McKennie was able to do just that. He's always been a threat in the air along with making things happen on the ground but thanks to the power on the cross, he didn't even need to jump to direct it past Suzuki.
Right after the break, Weah was able to draw Juventus level again with a goal of his own. Assisted by Chico Conceicao, he was able to add his third goal of the season after scoring and picking up an injury in Juventus' opening match of the campaign.

It was a lovely first-time finish from Weah after latching onto the cross helping bring Juventus back level.
Motta will still want more from the duo moving forward, but they've been consistent performers early on. With Concacaf Nations League play coming, USA coach Mauricio Pochettino will also be taking note of these performances, aiming to play those who are in their best form.
