International Football–at Citi Field
We've been slaking our thirst for footy action with mostly meaningless international matches the 4-0 hiding the USMNT suffered against Spain last Saturday afternoon in Foxborough, followed up by a lackluster 2-0 victory against Canada in their opening Gold Cup match Tuesday night; the Netherland's scoreless draw against Brasil Saturday down in Goiânia, and then their 1-0 loss yesterday against Uruguay in Montevideo (apparently the Dutch gamely undertook this two-match South American tour to give the two South American powers both a chance to warm up for the upcoming Campeonato Sudamericano Copa América (July 1-24 in Argentina) as well as a chance to avenge their eliminations from WC2010
A rare full house at Citi Field
One that slipped under our radar was a friendly played a mere handful of miles from the CultFootball headquarters Greece and Ecuador played to a 1-1 draw in front of a packed house of nearly 40,000 fans at Citi Field, the 2-year old home of the Mets.
