(*) Scores For The First Time In Two Years

[Bruce]

(*), the player whose name I have been banned from mentioning until he is officially invited to trial by JFF, scored his first goal in two years in national league play to lead Karlsruhe to a 3-0 win over Saarbrucken.

After a miserable season at FSV Frankfurt, (*) has started in Karlsruhe's last three league games, and his team has not conceded a goal in those matches. (0-0, 3-0, and 3-0) He also started in a first round German FA Cup match in which his club shocked big time team Hamburg 4-2.

In this video, shot by a fan in the stands, (*), #3 in white, will swoop in from the outside right on a long free kick, and head the ball over Saarbrucken's goalkeeper and two defenders.

Playing in the 3rd division isn't helping his chances much these days.

IMO, I would never change Adrian Mariappa and Nyron Nosworthy. However, should they be unable to play, I could easily see (*) as the first reserve to replace them.
