Ah, so not in for enough time for a scouting report?

Yeah, he's a winger/forward but was defending for most of the time and only had like a touch or two because CSKA Moscow were attacking a lot late in the game looking for a goal but they still lost 1-3. Still very impressive that an 18 year old kid got on the field for the best club in the world. :clap:

Mexico beat them 4-0 at the Alamodome (something over 50K attendance), so we should win by at least 5. :yeah:

I assume that was Korea's best players? I don't know. At least we didn't concede a goal, that would have made me upset. I'll take the 2-0 win I guess.

Magee missed the game due to food poisioning........

Well it wasn't our best players either, so it doesn't really matter either way if it was or not.

I know, but if our best players were out and we played well against their best that would have been nice. I'd feel pretty good being that much better than Korea. If that was their 2nd team then , yeah, the win was meaningless. Just I have no idea of the Korean team and who's who.
