Welcome back, Mane Landers! Still nothing to report on the USMNT coaching search, no more Pride matches, and Orlando City is on the outside looking in once again. One might think it would be hard to find something good, but then a young USMNT gave me lifeline. Let’s see what we’ve got this week.
This week the USMNT defeated Mexico, 1-0 in a very chippy match, with both teams putting out a young squad in this so-called friendly. The moment that best personifies the re-ignition of this fierce rivalry was 6-foot-4 Matt Mizaga taunting Diego Lainez about his height following a foul by the young Mexican phenom.
