BUILT TO SCORE

Strong, fluid and driven to go at defenders, Bobby Wood emerged in 2015 as a clutch goal scoring talent for the USMNT. He recorded back-to-back game-winning goals in victories against the Netherlands and Germany, the World Cup champions.

Wood followed his breakout year by becoming a first-choice striker throughout Copa America Centenario and the 2016 FIFA World Cup Qualifying. Having honed his skills in Europe as a teen, he is only the second player from Hawaii to earn a cap for the USMNT.

In 2017, Wood started six matches and scored two goals in the World Cup Qualifier, including an 85th minute equalizer to give the USA a 1-1 draw with Honduras and the final goal in a 4-0 rout of Panama. He also tallied five total goals during the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier, tying him for fifth overall in CONCACAF. In 2018, he tied for a team-leading nine appearances and led the way with three goals, including the game-winner from the penalty sport in a 1-0 victory against Paraguay. He went on to become one of six U.S. players to record three goals on European soil.
