USMNT Watch: Altidore, Wood, Yedlin Score in Superb Weekend for Americans

Everywhere you looked across the globe this week, an American was scoring. 

Not only did forwards Jozy Altidore and Bobby Wood return to the club level from the international break with tallies, but a few unexpected faces put their names on the scoresheet as well.
