USA World Cup Qualifying Gameday & Galaxy Highlights
It starts here.
Did that get you in the mood for today's U.S.-Barbados qualifier at Home Depot Center?
The game begins at 2 p.m. live on ESPN2 and Galavision.
Here's a game preview from the U.S. perspective and another from the view of Barbados wherein we learn the name of Barbados' playmaker: Norm.
Here's an update on the rest of the CONCACAF World Cup qualifiers this weekend, including four goals by Galaxy striker Carlos Ruiz for Guatemala against St. Lucia.
Meanwhile, Galaxy striker Edson Buddle was similarly pumping in the goals - but for L.A. in Oakland Saturday against the Earthquakes.
Well taken goals, too, judging by the highlights.
Of course, the largest crowd ever to see an Earthquakes game in the Bay Area didn't come to see Buddle - or San Jose for that matter.
Game story here.
Happy Father's Day.
I'll rejoin you later from Victoria Street.
