Gio Reyna assists once in first Premier League start

Gio Reyna’s first English Premier League start was a memorable one for the U.S. men’s national team star.

Reyna assisted once on Saturday in Nottingham Forest’s 2-2 home draw with Wolves at the City Ground. It was Reyna’s first club start since November 1 while he was still with parent club Borussia Dortmund.

After Wolves grabbed a 1-0 first-half lead, Forest battled back through Reyna’s assist and Morgan Gibbs-White’s header. Reyna swung a corner kick into the Wolves box in first-half stoppage time that Gibbs-White finished home for a 1-1 equalizer.

Danilo and Matheus Cunha traded goals in the second half as the two teams played out a 2-2 draw.

Reyna logged 71 minutes from his right midfield position, creating the most chances in the match (3) and winning five duels. It was a positive performance for Reyna, who has five additional league opportunities left this season.

Up next for Reyna and Forest is a trip to Everton on April 21.
