place, and Caleb Porter's side wrapped up its penultimate camp last week in Costa Rica with a pair
of friendlies.
Playing without some of its top players, the Americans played to a scoreless draw with the
Saprissa reserves.

It appears U.S. men's national team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann is making a concentrated effort
to get to know CONCACAF teams prior to World Cup qualifying.
According to a report, the United States will travel to Canada to take on its northern rival in
a friendly before World Cup qualifying begins in June.

UPDATE: The Union have officially announced that Kyle Nakazawa has been traded to the
Los Angeles Galaxy along with a 2013 natural second-round pick in exchange for an international
slot. The Union are now permitted to have nine internationals on their roster.
The evidence suggests that Gary Speed could have accidentally ended his life. Which of course
makes it even more tragic. The Football Association of Wales announced his memorial match will be
played against Costa Rica on Feb 29th. Speed began his international career playing that Central
American country.

Having already qualified for the 2012 Summer Olympics by winning Friday's game versus Costa
Rica, the USWNT's win over Canada in the Olympic Qualifying Tournament was the icing on the cake.
The Canadian side came into tonight's match with a lot of confidence, but when it came time to
perform, fell quite short.

The U.S. Women's National Team faced a tougher test than expected, but ultimately the Americans
proved too tough for underdog Costa Rica and eventually punched their ticket to the Summer
Olympics.
A first-half goal by Tobin Heath gave the U.S. women the lead and despite a courageous fight
from the Costa Ricans, the United States held that one-goal lead before Carli Lloyd blasted home a
long-range blast in the second half to give the Americans a 2-0 victory in the CONCACAF Olympic
Qualifying semifinals in Vancouver.

The U.S. WNT will play a HUGE match early in year on Friday night, Jan. 27, when it faces Costa
Rica in the semifinal of the 2012 CONCACAF Olympic Women's Qualifying Tournament for a berth to the
London Olympics.
A HIGHLY motivated U.S. team will kick-off the clash with the Central Americans at 5 p.
Hope Solo could potentially miss tomorrow nights all important semifinal match against Costa
Rica with a lingering quad injury. The timing could not be any worse as whoever loses the match
tomorrow will not qualify for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Solo was seen clutching her right
knee during the game against Mexico this past Tuesday night.
A spot in the Olympics is on the line for the US Women when they play Costa Rica at 8pm on
Universal Sports Network over-air and online. Everton - Fulham 3pm - Fox Soccer Fox Soccer reworked

The U.S. women's national team cruised through the Group Stage of Olympic qualifying and now
just needs a win on Friday against Costa Rica to reach the Summer Games in London.
There's one problem: Hope Solo might not play.

This woman's name is Julieth Arias. She is the No. 1 choice goalkeeper for the Costa Rican
womens national side. When Costa Rica need a female goalkeeper, she is the woman they turn
to first. She is, by means of extrapolation, the best female goalkeeper in Costa Rica.
The USWNT is pissed. Seriously.How else would you explain the fact that they went 3-0 in the group
stages of Olympic Qualifying with a +31 goal differential and no goals against?The latest
installment saw the US beat Mexico by a score of only 4-0. I say only because with 14-0 and 13-0
scorelines in the previous two matches, 4-0 seems kind of anticlimatic.
It's going to take quite a bit for Olympic qualifying of any type to make any type of news,
unless David Beckham is personally championing his merits for the cause. Women's CONCACAF
qualifiers? That will take something extraordinary. Like Costa Rica's keeper Julieth Arias and the
dreaded bouncy backpass.

The US Women did it again last night, defeating a Mexican squad that actually gave them a run
for their money. Don't let the 4-0 score fool you; the USWNT got lucky with two quick goals in the
7th and 8th minutes. That was it for the first half. Despite the strong will of Mexico, it wasn't
enough to stop the US who scored two more goals in the second half, winning Group B with all nine
points.
Carli Lloyd scores a hat trick, Heather O' Reilly chips in with another as USA easily beat
Mexico, 4-0, to secure a semi-final spot against Costa Rica in the Olympics qualifiers. This result
reversed their shocking loss to Mexico in the World Cup qualifiers which forced them into a playoff
match.

The U-23s are back in action to start 2012, holding a training camp at The Home Depot Center in
Carson, Calif. Head coach Caleb Porter has named a squad of 23 players to train at the HDC, with
eye towards Olympic Qualifying in March (just more than two months away!).
In addition to two-a-days in Southern California, the team will also head to Costa Rica for a first
trip abroad under Porter.

Caleb Porter has named his January 22 for Olympic prep that will continue in L.A. and Costa Rica.
Obviously, the eye-opener this time is a certain former Mexico youth international of promise.
Again, this group seems a little small to me, especially considering there is no textbook #9 type
in the bunch.
22 players will travel to The Home Depot Center for an 11-day Under-23 US National Team camp
followed by a two game trip to Costa Rica. The team will play local club sides in Costa Rica
starting on January 18th. Camp opens on Sunday, January 8th and runs through the 25th. "I'm very
pleased with where we are at in our process," Under-23 coach Caleb Porter said.

Park in Cardiff, and Wales won by a goal to nil.
After losing a lot of their offensive firepower by parting ways with leading scorer and
Designated Player Andres Mendoza, the Columbus Crew took a step in finding an attacking solution
by signing Chilean midfielder Milovan Mirosevic on Wednesday.
Columbus had success with a Chilean signing a year ago, finding a stable right back in Sebastian
Miranda.
