Scally can celebrate despite the loss!

Scally's Joy Unfazed by Loss! 🥳

Two Gladbach Stars Shine Nationally!

The European Championship qualifiers proved to be a hit for Borussia Mönchengladbach's Tomas Cvancara (23) and the Czech Republic! A thrilling 3-0 victory over Moldova secured their spot in the tournament, held in Germany next year. However, Cvancara himself didn't get the chance to contribute, spending the entire 90 minutes on the bench. It was David Doudera (14), Tomas Chory (72), and Tomas Soucek (89) who secured the win with their respective goals.

Meanwhile, Joe Scally (20) and the USMNT managed to salvage their CONCACAF Nations League quarter-final, despite a 2-1 defeat to Trinidad & Tobago. The USA had claimed a commanding 3-0 victory in the first leg. The setback came as a result of Sergino Dest's late red card (39), which seemed to disrupt the USA's momentum. Scally was substituted after 42 minutes, making way for his Bundesliga buddy, Giovanni Reyna (20, Borussia Dortmund).

Despite the loss, Scally's enthusiasm for qualifying for the Copa America 2024 with the USA national team was palpable. The Düsseldorf regional news reported on the international exploits of six Borussia Mönchengladbach players.
