There won’t be any Columbus Crew SC players on the field for the U.S. Men’s National Team on Friday night in a rivalry game against Mexico, but that doesn’t mean the Black & Gold’s presence isn’t felt.
Yes, the game is at MAPFRE Stadium once again, the home of Crew SC and ‘Dos a Cero,’ but that’s not as far as it goes.
U.S. head coach Jürgen Klinsmann invited Columbus head coach Gregg Berhalter, assistant coach Josh Wolff and brand ambassador Frankie Hejduk to speak to the team to brace the players for what they’re going to face in this match.
