USMNT forward Haji Wright has been ruled out for the remainder of the Concacaf Gold Cup with an Achilles injury, U.S. Soccer announced on Saturday.

Sunderland will face Sheffield United in the Championship playoff final after Daniel Ballard's header in the final seconds of extra time snatched a 1-1 home draw against Coventry City on Tuesday to secure a 3-2 aggregate victory.

Coventry City manager Frank Lampard has said sealing a Championship playoff spot is just the beginning for his side.


The USMNT may have struggled in last month's Concacaf Nations League Finals, but two of its forwards provided cause for optimism by getting on the scoresheet for their club teams in the English Championship on Saturday.

Rob Dawson explains the concept of TransferRoom on "The Football Reporters" podcast, and how it helped Coventry City agree to a deal for Viktor Gyökeres with Sporting.

Recap the numbers behind Haji Wright's hat trick for Coventry City vs. Sunderland.

A 26-year-old from Los Angeles, Wright scored in the 21st minute, then converted a penalty kick in the 29th after he was fouled by Chris Mepham. Wright scored in the 73rd for his 10th goal in 19 league matches this season.

Ipswich Town ran out 4-1 winners away from home in a comfortable cup tie vs. Frank Lampard's Coventry City.
