U.S. Soccer announced on Thursday that the USMNT will travel to Havana, Cuba for a friendly on October 7. It will be the first time the two have met in a friendly since 1947. They have met in Gold Cups and World Cup qualifying many times, but this will be the first friendly arranged between the two in nearly 70 years.
The match will take place in Estadio Pedro Marrero in the capital of Cuba. It will be shown on ESPN and Univision, while the kickoff time has yet to be determined.
"We are happy to have the chance to bring our team to Cuba," said U.
