NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Landon Donovan being hit with urine bags at the Azteca, Rafa Marquez head-butting Cobi Jones and the legend of dos a cero. Clint Dempsey, Brian McBride's goal in the 2002 World Cup last-16 or El Tri scoring four unanswered goals to win the 2011 Gold Cup. These are the moments and personalities that have come to define the U.S.-Mexico rivalry but not one of the players involved will be in the starting XIs on Tuesday in Nashville (ESPN, 8:30 p.m. ET).
Tuesday's game is a bit of a clean slate, with new faces and new (interim) managers figuring each other out.
