TAMPA, FL -- United Soccer Leagues announced the Team of the Week honors for the 10th week of the USL season, honoring Minnesota’s Brian Cvilikas as the USL First Division Player of the Week and Baltimore’s Machel Millwood as the USL Second Division Player of the Week.
After missing the first six games of the season, Brian Cvilikas has slowly worked his way back into the lineup and made just his second start over the weekend an eventful one as he helped guide the winless Thunder to their first victory of the campaign with a two-goal outing.
In the 13th minute, Ricardo Sanchez served a swerving ball on a free kick in from the right flank and Cvilikas found a hole in the Carolina RailHawks’ defense to redirect the ball in. Later in the 27th minute, a Rod Dyachenko corner kick found its way into the box, where Lawrence Olum got his head on it and Cvilikas directed it into goal off his chest.
The brace was his second of the week as he also struck for two in Minnesota’s come-from-behind US Open Cup victory over Nebraska’s 402. After falling behind, Cvilikas tallied the equalizer and later scored what proved to be the game-winner in the 3-2 decision.
