USMNT returns to Ireland with another young squad, hoping for much different results

More than three years after having a relatively young team thrashed in Dublin, the U.S. national team is back in Ireland with an even younger team

More than three years after its last trip to Ireland, the U.S. national team is back once again, and the Americans are hoping its current collection of young talent fares much better than the last group to make the trip to the Emerald Isle.

The U.S. suffered a 4-1 loss to Ireland on November 18, 2014 in a match that was as lopsided as the score indicated. Jurgen Klinsmann brought a young squad to Ireland for that match, but he also started nine players who were part of the 2014 World Cup team.
