The United States is looking for any edge for their World Cup qualifying match at Estadio Azteca in Mexico next week. They’ll play Venezuela in a friendly at Rio Tinto Stadium in Utah followed by a match with Trinidad and Tobago at Dick’s Sporting Good Park in Colorado.
By playing both games at altitude before heading to Mexico, Bruce Arena is setting up his team as best he can to accomplish something the USMNT has never done before - win a WCQ in Mexico.
Before that happens though, there are matters to attend to and they begin with Venezuela later tonight.
