Team USA lost to Jamaica 2-1 in Kingston on Friday night. It was the first time that Jamaica beat the U.S. Everyone should relax.
- This is the first round of CONCACAF qualifying. The U.S. only has to come in first or second in their group of four. The other two teams are Antigua and Guatemala. They will go through
- Landon Donovan, Michael Bradley, and Steve Cherundolo were not in action. The U.S. does not have depth.
- Clint Dempsey showed no rust scoring in the first minute of the game.
- The U.S. made two bad fouls that led to Jamaica goals off of free kicks.
- It's still a setback. The tiny island of Jamaica should not beat the US.
- Brek Shea should start for the US, and he should leave FC Dallas for the English Premier League.
- The US started Maurice Edu, Jermaine Jones, and Kyle Beckermand in the midfield last night. Are you kidding? Not one of these guys should be in a starting lineup for an int'l side.
- The rematch is on Tuesday in Colombus. I expect a much better performance from the U.S.
