Takes two shots Sunday
Wood registered two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Bournemouth.
Analysis: Wood was denied by the woodwork and the opposing goalkeeper during the league finale against Bournemouth. After missing several months with a knee injury, the striker worked his way back into the rotation late in the year and even partnered Igor Jesus in a two-striker formation over the final couple of contests. The veteran generated two goals and no assists over the closing 11-game stretch with his club and is now expected to serve as New Zealand's primary scoring threat in the World Cup.
Scores in smaller role
Wood scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Friday's 5-0 victory against Sunderland.
Analysis: Wood took only two shots during Friday's win, but that was all he needed as he got in on the goalscoring fun. The match was never close and Wood was more than good enough to put Sunderland to the sword. This is just his third goal of the season as injuries and form have limited Wood.
