TRIPLE FAWK I was planning to take my son's soccer team, parents, etc to the US-Korea match. It would have been a really nice thing for the kids to see. There's still the Youth WCQ in January at HDC. Maybe we'll do that instead.
Yeah, definitely. Tickets are on sale, I think, either now or soon. The cheapest tix are like $10. I'm definitely going to head out to hopefully two of those games, the Costa Rica game for sure.
First home match, March 30, 2005, in Birmingham, Alabama against Guatemala. The schedule for 2005's WCQ's, as we know it so far... Feb. 9 -- away to Trinidad & Tobago, at Queen's Park Oval, Port of Spain, Trinidad March 26 -- away to Mexico, Estadio Azteca, Mexico City March 30 -- home to Guatemala, Legion Field, Birmingham, Alabama The remaining games, yet to be set...

USA vs Croatia rumor: https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=157931 I've started a separate thread on it. Sachin
U.S. Soccer's site has it as Feb. 26 (that was my original source). Mind you, this release from U.S. Soccer says the the away match against Mexico is indeed on March 26. However, after checking both the CONCACAF and FIFA sites, they also have it as being on March 26, so we'll go with that. I've changed the schedule I had listed on the previous page accordingly.
By the way... I know they have other things to deal with right now, but is USSF ever going to get around to announcing the venues?
According to ussoccer.com, it's Easter Sunday: U.S. Men at Mexico Date: 3/27/05 12:00 PM End date: 3/27/05 2:30 PM Series: FIFA World Cup Qualifiers Location: Estadio Azteca (Mexico City, Mexico) All times CT
According to espn.com: Wednesday, Feb. 9, 2005 8:00-10:00 pm ET USA Soccer-Men's Wcup Qualifier: Trinidad & Tobago vs United States And according to ussoccer.com: U.S. Men at Trinidad & Tobago Date: 2/9/05 2:30 PM ET End date: 2/9/05 5:00 PM ET Series: FIFA World Cup Qualifiers Location: Queen's Park Oval (Port of Spain, Trinidad)
IIRC, it's standard procedure to only know the first couple of venues. The others come along in due time.
the game is indeed a rare night game at azteca, and given the USMNT labor situation, chalk up a big fat L.....
