FINAL – #USMNT 5, Grenada 0.
A lackluster first half of left USA fans little to be interested by, nonetheless the 2d half of used to be a varied memoir.
Just real games from Arriola, De La Torre and obviously Ferreira. That Arriola-Ferreira FC Dallas combo has an excellent connection going.

However that hasn’t continuously been the case for the FC Dallas forward on the worldwide stage, and if Friday’s performance is the conceitedness-booster he mandatory, the USMNT would possibly perchance doubtless very neatly be one step nearer to answering the finest ask on its roster.
And Ferreira had a few beauties within the bunch, one other real signal.
Avid gamers adore Ricardo Pepi, Jordan Pefok, Gyasi Zardes, Haji Wright and Josh Sargent must soundless like their dispute within the scurry to e-book the road come the World Cup. However Ferreira, within the damage, had his signature performance for the US.
He would possibly perchance doubtless simply like punched his stamp to Qatar within the course of.
