A few years ago he was a 20-year-old winger at Heerenveen with Michael Bradley. He also played against Jozy in the 2008 Olympics.
As long as he stays healthy, I am extremely pleased with the number of games Jozy has gotten since his move to AZ. Also, they have scored a ton of goals thus far. They currently sit with an 11 GD, including this game, and are atop the table. Very impressive.
It's a pity that in this clip you cannot see the brilliance of the assist/pass made by Maher, what you call in basketball a no look pass.
