Aug. 25 (1955)

Future U.S. Soccer Hall of Famer Bill Looby scores both goals for the USA in a 3-2 loss to Iceland in an international friendly in Iceland. Looby, one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of St. Louis soccer, tallies a goal in each half. Two other St. Louisans — Harry Keough and Herman Wecke — are in the USA’s starting 11. (No substitutes are allowed, so the starting 11 play the entire game for each team.) Looby will appear nine times for the United States and score six goals from 1954-1959. He is believed to have scored the most goals in St. Louis soccer history in one season with more than 60, primarily with Kutis, in 1958-59.
