EURO 2024Jozy Altidore scores for AZ in easy cup win over Veendam
Posted Friday, September 28, 2012 by YAHOO Sport
Jozy Altidore kept up his goalscoring ways on Thursday, netting a penalty kick in AZ's 4-1 KNVB Cup win over SC Veendam, which plays in the Dutch second division.
AZ was ahead 3-0 when it was awarded a penalty kick in the 76th minute, which the American striker stepped up and buried to the goalkeeper's right. Viktor Elm had already scored a hat trick for the Eredivisie side, which now advances to the third round of the Dutch cup competition.
The goal was Altidore's eighth in all competitions this season. The 22-year-old leads the Eredivisie with seven goals in his club's first six league matches. The team has posted a 2-2-2 record in those half-dozen games.
The Alkmaar club now turns its attention back to league play, where it will face RKC Waalwijk at home on Sunday.
