Draw made today..

USA in uncertifiably the Group of Death

USA
Argentina
Germany
Egypt


Perhaps Freddy won't be missing as many games as we all initially thought.. Though, to be fair, some 3rd place teams will advance. As long as the US doesn't get pounded in pool play, they stand a reasonable chamce to advance.

Interesting point in that we have lost to all three of our group opponents in our last two U-20 WC competitions (Egypt in 01' - Germany in group play and Argentina eliminated us in 03')


June 11 vs Argentina
June 14 vs Germany
June 18 vs Egypt

DC United plays on Sunday June 12, Wed June 15 and Sat June 18 during that week of play in Holland..

None of the games will overlap, they will be completed by 5 pm Eastern on game days.

So, I'm guessing Freddy will be there and not with DC during those times.
