West Ham centre-forward Michail Antonio has enjoyed an international break to remember.
The 31-year-old scored a superb solo goal against El Salvador to get off the mark for Jamaica on Saturday night.
Overnight, Antonio has been at it again, this time with a sensational long-range effort finding the back of the USA net.
Antonio now has two goals in three caps for the Caribbean nation and the crucial point kept Jamaica in sixth in the CONCACAF World Cup qualifying standings.
So far this season the talismanic Iron has scored seven times and provided four assists in 13 appearances for David Moyes’ side.

Wow.
We are all used to seeing the powerful ace shrug off the presence of defenders before finishing with aplomb. But, seeing a 25-yard screamer is a new side to Antonio.
Whilst many Hammers will be delighted to see their £10.8million man finally flourishing on the international stage, there will be those who simply hope there are no ill effects from a midweek 90 minutes.
Injury-prone and crucial to the Irons, Moyes will no doubt be keeping a close eye on how the London-born star recovers ahead of a trip to Wolves.
