USA 2-0

Damnit, they took away fox sports around here and replaced it with comcast the bastards. Anyway, 1-0 USA, Eddie Johson if hes playing. Itll be intresting to see how the difference in air at altitude affects the players, but where can you find comparable heights in albuquerque?

Goal Eddie Johnson!

What a shot by Mathis!

That's why he's here.

1-0 FT

I can't really do player grades because nobody stood out and nobody sucked out there. Another great game by Mastroeni, he's a beast on the defensive end and smooth going forward. Dempsey is fearless, I love that. Not afraid to tackle, go at defenders or shoot the ball. Had a couple of moments in the second half where he got caught going too far up the field, but other than that was solid on both sides of the ball.

Ching really impressed me with his passing and his touch on the ball. I think because of his size, people seem to forget he has skill. EJ was giving the Hondurans a lot of trouble as well.

Guys from this group that should start vs. Mexico:

Mastroeni
Johnson
Ching

Something tells me Arena starts McBride over Ching, but I wouldn't.

What a boring game.

Damn, I totally forgot about the match. Good to see us win again.

Will Reyna join the squad for the Mexico game? He scored one for City today. I think it will be better for him to stay home, get some games under his belt before he plays any national games.

As much as i hate to agree wit this orange boy i think he is making sense. Reina is someone we can't live without. Is Szetela making any progres? They call him the new Giggs in England.

I'm guessing Bruce calls him up for the Mexico/Guatemala roster. I could see him starting against Guatemala.
