Benny Feilhaber is on fire.
A week after delivering the fastest assist in Danish Superliga history, Feilhaber continued his impressive run of form with a game-winning goal in Aarhus' 3-2 win over Randers FC on Monday. The goal, which came in the 45th minute, helped Aarhus climb to first place in the league after two games played, and was the first of Feilhaber's club career.
The American international started, played 90 minutes and received a yellow card before being subbed out in stoppage time. (Update - Here are the match highlights, including Feilhaber's goal, and a clever backheel to help set up Aarhus' second.)
Feilhaber's current form, combined with his impressive performances in the Confederations Cup and Gold Cup, is surely to earn him a call-up from U.S. men's national team head coach Bob Bradley when the United States plays Mexico at Estadio Azteca in World Cup qualifying on Aug. 12.
Feilhaber, however, has two more league games before then as Aarhus next play Odense BK on Aug. 3 and Koge six days later.
What do you think of Feilhaber's current run of form? Is he likely to start at Azteca? Pleased to finally see Feilhaber show his potential at the club level?
