U.S. men turn it around with 4-0 win over Guatemala

The U.S. soccer team’s fading World Cup hopes got a much-needed boost Tuesday. And for that Coach Juergen Klinsmann can thank one player he’s been playing out of position and another who wasn’t even on his roster until this week.

Geoff Cameron, moved back to his preferred position in central defense, set up one first-half goal and scored another, and Graham Zusi, making his first appearance with the national team since last summer, added another 20 seconds into the second half, lifting the U.S. to a 4-0 win over Guatemala in a game the Americans had to win.
