Agudelo Makes USMNT History As They Win Nelson Mandela Challenge Over South Africa

Six days shy of his 18th birthday, forward Juan Agudelo of Major League Soccer's New York Red Bulls became the youngest player to ever score a goal for the US Men's National Team in the modern era as the team defeated South Africa 1-0 Wednesday to win the Nelson Mandela Challenge in Cape Town.

Agudelo's goal came in the 85th minute off Mikkel Diskerud and allowed the US to finish the 2010 season with a record of 5-4-5.
