Christian Pulisic Starts For The USA vs. Mexico

Jurgen Klinsmann has named a vastly experienced starting eleven for Friday night’s World Cup qualifying match against Mexico in Columbus, Ohio. The only real deviance from that formula is the inclusion of 18-year-old Christian Pulisic, but the Borussia Dortmund starlet was widely tipped to start tonight.

In the absence of Geoff Cameron, John Brooks and Omar Gonzalez will anchor the center of defense for the Americans. Fabian Johnson has been pushed into midfield, and DeAndre Yedlin will have to accept a place on the bench as Timmy Chandler will start on the outside of defense.

Jermaine Jones destroza a Chicharito y propone un nuevo apodo para el delantero

Jermaine Jones ha proporcionado la mayor fuente de "material de cartelera" desde el vestidor de México al lanzar una evaluación mordaz del mexicano Javier 'Chicharito' Hernández.

Megan Rapinoe's Stance On Kneeling

A quick refresher: USWNT star Megan Rapinoe chose to join other athletes in kneeling during "The Star-Spangled Banner".

Jurgen Klinsmann Danced Back At Bob Bradley And Now It's On

Bob Bradley served Jurgen Klinsmann, who danced back, and now it's on.

Remember the South Park episode in which a dance troupe comes to town and serves the boys and then Stan's dad teaches him some line-dancing steps and the boys get served again but then Stan dances back and then it's on? That's what's happening between current USMNT manager Jurgen Klinsmann and former USMNT manager (and new Swansea manager) Bob Bradley.

Don't Sleep On A Hugely Improved Julian Green

Julian Green is yet to play a minute in the Bundesliga this season. His only appearance for the Bavarian giants was as a substitute in the DFB Pokal.
