still up 1-0, 74th minute. the ball is staying mexico's end, and they're playing for the counter attack.

that really is a shame... i hope he gets back to normal quickly.

howard visibly limping a few minutes after the challenge by marquez.

USA gets two HUGE breaks in the 65th minute. first mexico misses a tap in from 6 inches out, and then gets a red card on their captain marquez on a red card for a studs-up challenge on tim howard.

62 minutes in, still 1-0 US leads. Shockingly there have been no yellow cards in this game.

doubtful.

BINGO.

Still 1-0 in the 52nd. I really like Kliestjan in the midfield.

USA narrowly misses another in the 44th.

Great corner kick, donovan heads it back across, Onyewu nice header, great save by Sanchez, but Bradley is there to hammer it home from about 3 feet.

GOAL! Michael Bradley in the 43rd!

they beat 14-8 Okie-lite by 25 after turning it off late. who wouldn't be happy about that result, especially after struggling so much in the past two weeks.

that would NASTY!

USA is controlling the game, but Mexico looks a bit more dangerous in the offensive third.

Sanchez makes a nice save on a Dempsey shot in the 30th. still 0-0.

Donovan missed by about a foot, and had the keeper beat.

Ching wins a FK just outside the box in the 20th

Conditions are nasty in Columbus. Off and on showers, 52 degrees, winds between 28-45 mph

Howard just made a HUGE save on a point blank shot 3 minutes in.

Kickoff at 6:15.

a normal kid would most likely face imediate removal from any sports program they were involved in.

Dickie, sometimes i agree with you, but not here. You're blinded by your dedication to Ozen. This kid made a huge mistake, especially considering the future he has laid out for him, and it really sounds like you're not to worried about him as long as he gets to suit up for the playoffs. I'm all about second chances, but for a school district to do their best to ignore a situation like this is laughable. he must be disciplined, and if the rules call for him to be kicked off the team, so be it. maybe he'll be a better teammate at Baylor if he realizes that there are more important things than him having a good time. I sure feel sorry for his future teammates if it's reinforced for him here that he can do whatever he wants since he's a star athlete.

Ouch. No wonder they were pretending they didn't know about it.
