Shawn Parker is a 19-old striker/winger who plays for Germany U-20 national team and has just made a very impressive debut in Bundesliga with Mainz, scoring a goal and setting up another. Mainz consider him to be their best prospect and a prized asset. For me, it was impressive how calm and confident he looked in his first ever senior game.

“It was about time to give it a shot with Shawn playing right from the start of the match,” Tuchel [Mainz coach] said. “He has been very focused and very good in the training sessions, so we wanted to reward his good work and give it a try. Beforehand we had no idea where Shawn would actually stand in comparison to the more experienced Bundesliga players on the pitch. We were curious to see how he would react to the speed of the game and the special surroundings of a derby match. To me it was very impressive how quickly and well Shawn adapted to the situation. The way he handled himself was just great.”
