According to the USSF website, D.C. United U-13s will represent U.S. Soccer at the CONCACAF Champions League beginning Tuesday, 8/4. http://www.ussoccer.com/stories/201...ntacademy-u13dcunited-concacafchampionsleague Congratulations to the team, and to their coaches! Vamos United!
I had seen the headline earlier but not the brutal schedule. Some of the mythical gods got more off-days when creating worlds The soccer gods, they have no sympathy. I hope they have more players than the full MLS team is allowed
According to CONCACAF, the Mexican opponent would be either Águilas UAS (never heard of them) or Toluca. Long-time CCL followers may also remember Chalatenango: they were supposed to play you guys in the 2009-10 preliminaries, but the club fell on hard times and self-relegated by selling its spot in the Salvadoran First Division, leaving DC to take on FAS instead.
I lived there a couple years for grad school and supported DC United...but then MLS returned to my native Florida.
