Red Bull New York forward Julian Hall has enjoyed a remarkable start to life with the United States men’s national team.
The 18-year-old forward has now scored goals in each of his first three appearances for the USMNT.
On Saturday against rivals Mexico, Hall became the third player in USMNT history to record a goal in each of his first three appearances, joining Eddie Johnson (2004-05) and Alexander Rae (1937).
Hall Becomes Youngest International Player Since Pelé To Score In First Three Caps
He is also the youngest player in the history of international soccer to score in each of their first three caps since Brazil legend Pelé in 1957.
The Red Bull New York Academy graduate opened the scoring in the 28th minute, scoring on a one-timed shot past Mexico keeper Raúl Rangel. Cavan Sullivan and Malik Tillman would also score on the night as the United States rolled to a 3-0 victory at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
At 18 years and 194 days old, Hall is the third-youngest player to score against Mexico.
The United States will seek a fourth win out of four on Tuesday, October 6, when they face Canada at Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minn.
Hall will look to carry his sparkling international form to help the Red Bulls secure a playoff berth. The Red Bulls currently sit eighth in the Eastern Conference and will host San Diego FC on Saturday, October 10.
