Elias Hernandez scored Mexico’s second goal on an impressive volley:

>> Haji Wright, a 19-year-old American striker rising through Schalke’s system, scored four goals in a 15-minute span during the Bundesliga club’s 9-1 preseason victory at Erkenschwick, a last-place fifth-tier team last season. The Los Angeles native, a member of the NASL’s New York Cosmos in 2015, scored 12 goals for Schalke’s under-19 squad last season and was summoned to the first team (but did not play) for a Bundesliga match May 20.

>> The Washington Spirit led the NWSL in attendance this weekend with a sellout crowd of 5,200 at Maryland SoccerPlex for the return of ex-captain Ali Krieger (not to mention Orlando stars Alex Morgan and Marta). Overall, though, it wasn’t a great weekend at the NWSL box office:

>> Houston Dash Coach Omar Morales, on Carli Lloyd’s red card against Portland:

“It should not have been a red card; it may have been a yellow at most. If that is a yellow, then [Lindsey] Horan should have had seven yellows and it’s a different game. The consistency of the refereeing in this league is not there. It’s the most deficient part of our game, unfortunately. The biggest thing is: Do they watch these games, do they learn, is there a growth factor with what they do or do they just do a game, go home and sleep it off? It has impacted a lot of people.”

>> The Seattle Sounders drew 40,667 to CenturyLink Field for a 1-1 draw in a friendly against Eintracht Frankfurt. Clint Dempsey scored for the MLS side, while 2014 World Cup teammate Timmy Chandler assisted for the Bundesliga club, which will visit San Jose on Friday and Columbus on Monday.

>> D.C. United homegrown Chris Durkin, 17, played 90 minutes in Richmond’s 2-0 defeat at FC Cincinnati in a second-flight USL match before 21,769 at Nippert Stadium. The Kickers (2-9-6) are winless in 12 straight league matches (0-6-6) and 13 games overall (U.S. Open Cup defeat to Christos FC). After visiting Harrisburg this weekend, Richmond will welcome Swansea City for a friendly at City Stadium on July 19.

>> Durkin will rejoin the U.S. under-17 national team this fall for the U-17 World Cup in India, Oct. 6-28. In Friday’s draw, the Americans were placed with India, Colombia and Ghana.

>> The University of Maryland has landed a major transfer: UCLA outside back Chase Gasper, an Alexandria, Va., native who needed to return to the East Coast for family reasons. He also considered Georgetown and North Carolina.

Gasper, who scored in extra time of the 2014 College Cup semifinals vs. Providence, has two years of eligibility left. Unlike transferring basketball and football players, the NCAA does not require soccer players to sit out a year. He played high school soccer at Gonzaga (D.C.) and club ball at Olney Rangers with current Maryland midfielder Jake Rozhansky, Portland Timbers first-round pick Jeremy Ebobisse and Arsenal’s Gedion Zelalem.

Maryland will also welcome three international players: defender Johannes Bergmann (German under-18 and under-20 system), Australian goalkeeper Misha de Waal-Hart (Dutch club Maastricht) and Venezuelan keeper Alejandro Chacon (Caracas FC).
