you know Inter had to start a 19 year old kid in goal right?
I don't give a fuck, they didn't have to do shit. A win is a win, and America has been shitty as fuck for a couple years so this is a big win for them no matter what. Quit trying to hate...

And you see the Mexico game yesterday? THAT's how you handle Haiti...

and they kinda had to bring in that 19 year old keeper cause Julio Cesar wasn't with the team, and their first back up didn't even dress for the game leaving a 19 year old kid the job

Doesn't matter. Mexico needed a big win like this, and it will be the catalyst of the momentum they'll bring the rest of the way in order to qualify for the World Cup and beat the US Team. You'll see.

The 19year old keeper for Inter played really well. Its not like he's some slouch (at least from what I saw) had great reaction on that free kick that hit the post and was good coming out / on crosses. America fans should be juiced, its a huge win for them... Inter played the majority of their stars. Milito, Balotelli, Ibrahimovic, Stankovic, Cambiasso, Santon, etc etc all played 30 min +

That CB Mosquera that Club America picked up from Sevilla was gooood.

Game was fun. America fans rolled out two huge flags, but one of them was upside down lol. Good atmosphere for a friendly.

Agent Confirms Livorno Interest In Donovan And Clark

The news that Landon Donovan was being pursued by newly promoted Serie A side Livorno came as a surprise to most observers. Livorno seems like too small a club for Donovan, who has indicated he would like to play for a big European team.

But on Wednesday, Donovan’s agent, Richard Motzkin, of WMG, confirmed to Goal.com that he had spoken to representatives at Livorno about the Los Angeles Galaxy striker. He also confirmed that the Amaranto had shown an interest in Houston Dynamo midfielder Ricardo Clark, another WMG client.

Motzkin declined to provide more details.

The news of Livorno’s interest in Donovan, the US National Team’s all-time leading scorer, emerged on Tuesday when club president Aldo Spinelli claimed he was preparing a bid. He is looking to bolster his attacking corps, which currently includes former Italy international Cristiano Lucarelli and veteran Francesco Tavano. Questions linger whether the small Tuscan side has the financial capabilities to wrest Donovan from MLS, given the striker’s raised profile after a strong performance at the Confederations Cup.

Clark, a 26-year-old hard-nosed holding midfielder, also turned heads at the Confed Cup. His play in the 2-0 win over Spain was particularly impressive. He is a box-to-box player who is not afraid of a hard tackle and is capable of shooting from long distance. On the negative, he has also had discipline problems throughout his career, including earning a nine-game ban after kicking an opponent who was on the ground in 2007, and more recently, receiving a red card against Italy in the Confed Cup.

While in South Africa, Clark, whose contract is up at the end of this season, spoke to Goal.com about his desire to go overseas and whether he could play in top European league like Serie A.

“I’m always keeping my options open,” Clark told Goal.com. “I feel like with my abilities, I could play in a league like that.”
