USA 4-1 Cuba



Not the most encouraging preformance. BUT, like the last two WCQ's, we ended up with a comfortable win after 90 minutes. That's all that matters. Landon showed again why he is the best American player alive today. I was also encouraged by Santino Quaranta, who may finally be living up to his potential. He was part of the same class with Eddie Johnson, so hopefully he can step up just like he has.

The Canada game tomorrow should be easier. They played awful vs Costa Rica, and their captain McKenna is suspended. DeRosario is their top thread, and he hasn't exactly been tearing up MLS. And, we should have our first team out there, which means Donovan/Ralston/Mastroeni/Onyewu/Pope instead of Casey/Davis/Armas/Conrad/Sanneh. I don't think we'll score four again, but it should be an easier time.

Prediction: USA 3-0 Canada
