Real Salt Lake sends 3 familiar names back to USMNT Camp
Well a familiar 3 names will be heading back into the USMNT camp for a couple weeks, Beckerman, Rimando, and Findley all were named to the roster of players being invited to the Feb 10th-24th USMNT camp. At the end of that camp session will be the friendly match against El Salvador in Tampa Bay, FL on Feb. 24th.
This means 2 more weeks to impress the US coaching staff and try to get named to the full USMNT roster for the 2010 World Cup. All three were in camp before the 3-1 loss to Honduras last month, Robbie Findley played the full 90 minutes, Kyle Beckerman played 60 minutes before being taken out and replaced with Conor Casey (insert nobody likes Conor Casey chant here), and Nick Rimando was the only sub not used in the match.
Here is hoping that Nick gets his chance to show that he can take charge of the defense and provide some leadership that was clearly missing in the last match.
