US v Brazil

Postby DCHeather » Fri Jan 13, 2012 1:53 pm

http://espn.go.com/sports/soccer/news/_ ... states-may:

NEW YORK -- Brazil will play an exhibition game against the United States on May 30 or 31 at Landover, Md., or Foxborough, Mass.

The game was announced Thursday by Brazilian soccer's governing body. It will be part of a three-game U.S. trip for Brazil, which also will play Mexico on June 3 at Arlington, Texas, and Argentina on June 9 at East Rutherford, N.J.

The Americans are preparing for their opening World Cup qualifiers, at home against Antigua and Barbuda on June 8 and at Guatemala four days later. They start the year against Venezuela on Jan. 21 at Glendale, Ariz., then play at Panama four days later and at Italy on Feb. 29.

Brazil defeated the Americans 2-0 on goals by Neymar and Alexandre Pato in their last meeting -- at the Meadowlands in August 2010.


Please be Landover!!!!! :banana-dance:

Heather, sounds like it is going to be FedEx Field from the various hints that Goff has been receiving from people in the DC area. Still, nothing is official.

And now Grant Wahl just reported from tonight's USMNT/U-23 scrimmage that Klinsmann just said US vs. Mexico at Azteca in August.

Giddy up.

my vote is certainly for MD, but I'm busy that weekend anyway. Der Kaiser is certainly lining up impressive friendlies, now that we are so easy to beat :P

Still when are we going to see Germany v US or Egypt v US

I think just about every USMNT supporter says that about their location.

On a Wednesday at 8pm? That's rough. I wish it were on a Sat., definitely consider it if it was. Right now, that's a no go.

How does one call in sick when you're a stay at home momma? I'm set with a sitter, I just have to convince the one who does not care for the "non-handball" game.

No need to bribe, it's a go...so far. Just gotta get some tickets. :banana-guitar:
