Chris Wondolowski and Julian Green scored second-half goals, Ethan Horvath got a shutout in his international debut and the United States beat Cuba 2-0 victory Friday in its first exhibition game in 69 years at the Caribbean island nation.
The U.S. started nine players who likely will be on the field for next month's World Cup qualifier against Mexico. The 22nd-ranked Americans struggled to mount attacks in the first half against No. 139 Cuba, hampered by a bumpy field at Havana's Estadio Pedro Marrero that had brown patches, but still extended their winning streak to three.
