  "account": "Cavan Sullivan is currently making waves in the world of soccer, and his latest goal exemplified this with a celebration that paid homage to the newest addition to the Philadelphia sports scene. In a match against CF Montreal on September 5, Sullivan scored a goal in the second half, propelling his team to a 2-0 victory. Following the play, Sullivan performed a chalk toss, a celebration made famous by LeBron James, the 76ers' newest signing. The Union had taken the lead in the 58th minute through Danley Jean Jacques, and Sullivan sealed the deal in the 75th minute. Milan Iloski made a run on goal but was unable to bypass Montreal's goalkeeper, Sebastian Breza. However, Sullivan was quick to react and capitalize on the rebound. The 16-year-old has been on a roll, scoring three goals and providing three assists in his last five matches. With six wins and two draws in their last eight MLS games, the Union are in a strong position for a playoff spot. Sullivan's rising star status has made him a potential darling of Philadelphia sports fandom, and soon, he'll be joining LeBron James, who recently signed with the Sixers in July. James, turning 42 in December, will complement the team alongside the youngest sports star in Philadelphia.",
