deficit to earn a 2-2 draw with the United States in an exhibition match
Wednesday night. Highly touted 18-year-old Julian Green made his senior U.S.
debut, coming on in the 59th minute as a substitute at midfielder for Graham
Zusi. Green is the product of German club Bayern Munichs developmental system
who recently committed his international soccer future to the United States
national team. Born in Tampa, Fla., but raised in Germany, Green has played for
both German and U.S. national teams from the U-16 to U-19 levels. He was called
in last year by U.S. head coach Jurgen Klinsmann, but declined the invitation to
team camp at that time. Green appeared to his a shoulder in the 80th minute
after he fell down, but was checked out quickly on the sideline and returned to
the field. Mexico turned a dreadful first half into a tight game following
captain Rafael Marquezs 49th-minute goal. Mexico became more active on the
attack and threatened to tie on almost every run in the second half. The tying
goal came in the 67th minute. Alan Pulido collected the rebound of Paul Aguilars
shot that hit the post and kicking the ball into an exposed net. Both teams had
chances to take the lead late in the match. Second-half substitute Eddie Johnson
was ruled offside and his goal nullified in the 85th minute. Mexicos Miguel
Angel Ponce took a shot in the 86th minute that barely went over the goal. Early
on, the U.S. looked as if it miight run away with another satisfying win over
its biggest rival.
Cal Clutterbuck Islanders Jersey. It took the U.S. less than 15 minutes to get on the scoreboard first. Midfielder Michael
Bradley outran Mexico midfielder Jesus Zavala to a corner kick that went far
post from Zusi, and Bradley finished with one touch to give the Americans the
early lead. The U.S. set the pace of the match early, making runs down the field
several times and making Mexicos defence work and drawing corner kicks. The U.S.
took a two-goal lead in the 28th minute with some effective passing. Clint
Dempsey sent the ball out wide to Tony Beltran, a defender making just his third
appearance for the national team. Beltran crossed to Bradey, who found Chris
Wondolowski to his left near the goal, and Wondolowski slotted the ball into the
net. The goal elicited chants of "Dos a Cero" from outnumbered U.S. fans, in
reference to the final score of several previous U.S. wins over Mexico in the
long history of the rivalry. Mexicos first goal came off a corner kick from
Marco Fabian to Marquez, who found space in the box for an on-target header.
Four minutes later, Marquez got free for another header that Rimando had to tip
over the top of the goal. The match served a pre-World Cup tuneup for both teams
as they evaluate players to be on their respective World Cup rosters. The next
U.S exhibition is May 27 against Azerbaijan at San Franciscos Candlestick Park.
Mexico hosts Israel in Mexico City on May 28.
