American-Born goal breakdown by state
Did you go down the foreign player list or the goal list? I ask because it appears you left Toja off the Colombia list. I don't remember how many he scored before he got sold, but he at least scored the one in FCD's opener against Chivas.
ReplyDeleteHey Chris,
ReplyDeleteToja's 2 goals were included in Colombia's total of 21.
I compiled the list only by country initially but then decided to go back and add the player names later on. I forgot to list Toja, but he's there now. Thanks.
