Weston McKennie made a young fan’s day when he fulfilled their request following America’s epic win over Iran in the World Cup.
The United States Men’s Soccer Team midfielder was caught on camera being an “A+ human” when he gave his jersey to a young fan holding a sign that said “McKennie, please give me your shirt.”

Following the massive victory over Iran, the United States will go on to face Holland, and Americans have high hopes that match will be an easy win.
McKennie, who was instrumental in bringing home the win, definitely melted hearts with his kindness:
How can you not love this guy? What a moment for her and her family. This is what it’s all about.

A camera panned to her and her sign during the game. I was hoping this would happen and it did.

I remember seeing this girl with the sign during the game and thought how cute. But he saw it too and she got his jersey! So awesome @WMckennie!

If you aren’t paying attention some of the biggest W’s for this team aren’t happening only on the field. Wes, Jedi, Sarge, Adams all have been amazing ambassadors for our country, and that’s just what we’ve seen on social media (that’s not meant to exclude the others.

Might be one of the youngest teams but all of these boys are a class act on and off the pitch. Proud of our progress
