US and Costa Rica Play to a Draw

Last night the US concluded opening round play with a 0-0 draw vs Costa Rica. Though both finished group play 2-0-1, the US enters elimination play as the group winner on the strength of better goal differential, +5, than Costa Rica.

Defender Frankie Hejduk picked up his second yellow card and will be lost for the next game. Coach Arena was not pleased with his decision making. The US will either play the third place finisher of Group C which could be Jamaica, Mexico or South Africa, depending on results of today's games. The elimination game will be played this Saturday in Foxboro.
