Andrija Novakovich (Muskego) played the final 17 minutes as the U.S. Under-20 national team and Australia played out a 0-0 draw in the finale of the National Training Center Invitational on Friday night in Carson, Calif.
The teams also finished tied atop the standings for the four-team tournament with 2-0-1 records – the Americans claimed the title on goal differential (plus-5 to plus-4) after both teams beat Chile and Bermuda.
The 18-year-old Novakovich, who will head back to England to resume his first preseason at Reading FC, had two goals in his three appearances (one start) at the event.
