Azaad Liadi and Ollie Wright, who connecting on the tying goal in the Portland Hearts of Pine’s game against AV Alta FC on Saturday, were named to the USL League One Team of the Week on Tuesday.
It’s the third time this season Wright has been named to the team of the week, including when he earned Player of the Week honors in Week 15. Liadi was named to the bench for the team of the week after Week 9.
In a 1-1 tie against AV Alta on Saturday, Wright got the ball outside the 6-yard box and drove it into the middle of the penalty area, where Liadi one-timed it into the net to tie the game in the 77th minute.
