Bulls-Eye;2349554; said:I'm excited to hopefully see Holden get some strong playing time, as well as Corona. Two guys with gobs of talent that, for one reason or another, have not been involved much in the qualifying so far, but who could potentially play an important role in the World Cup. Donovan is included in that as well, obviously.
We'll see where the goals will come from with this group, but the midfield looks very strong overall.

U.S. Soccer is using a lottery system to determine who gets tickets. Tickets also on sale thru supporters groups.
billmac91;2351371; said:Stuart Holden, by far, was the best player on the field. Guy has a vision and touch I haven't seen any American play with. Injuries are the only thing that has prevented him from being a world-wide name.
that was bad, but, even though it was just a friendly:Smudger;2352162; said:I still haven't gotten over the ridiculous red card Michael Orozco got in the effing third minute of the final group stage game in the '08 Olympics against Nigeria. One of the dumbest plays I've ever seen an athlete do in any sport. I still harbor ill feelings towards the man for that, but he's got an opportunity to redeem himself in my eyes now.
Ugh. Still lingers with me as well. What a terrible disservice to an otherwise young and promising squad.Starting XI for tonight:
Nick Rimando; Michael Orozco, DaMarcus Beasley, Michael Parkhurst, Clarence Goodson; Joe Corona, Mikkel Diskerud, Kyle Beckerman, Jose Torres; Landon Donovan & Chris Wondolowski

I remember this as well. Any goal against Mexico is worth something special to me.ochre;2352164; said:that was bad, but, even though it was just a friendly:
