us 1:jam 1 (no link, but i’m sure you can find something on espn)
i though wolff played pretty bad, gave the ball away too many times, had that goal called back due to offsides. somehow, balboa still had him on the team, for his WC roster.
aside:
whatever happened to clint mathis? i mean, i know he’s playing out in salt lake, but i mean…what happened? i really liked his style of play. How can one guy turn to an almost also ran so quickly? i guess it had something to do w/ his injuries, but otherwise what?
ching didn’t help himself out, to me he’s a mcbride clone, and not a very good one at that.
let’s see, dempsey impressed me yet again, i like the kid a lot. so much so that i’d marry him. kids got moxey (sp?).
noonan didn’t impress again, but like before, balboa had high praise for him. he’s gotta be number 25/26 on the roster, right up there w/ wolff.

i like olsen too, but i don’t know where he can fit in w/ a crowded midfield. i think he’ll only get on the roster if there’s a run of injuries to the midfield (cross fingers, i hope not).
back four looked in disarray a couple of times, even though the US was in control for most of the match, jamaica had their chances.
enough of the stream of thought writing for tonight, just another friendly, besides, arena pretty much had 95% of his roster already together, just getting that 25th and 26th roster spots, apparently that’ll be noonan and wolff.
