Landon Donovan

Yeah, and right before the World Cup, too, with Germany and Senegal.

Yeah, yeah.

Amazing job, as always, by Tom King, our guy at U.S.

Soccer, who sets these things up.

This is not easy, and he's put together, again, amazing opponents.

Portugal ranks sixth.

They are in Group K with Colombia, Uzbekistan, and then either New Caledonia, Jamaica, or Congo, probably Congo.

Players to watch, Nuno Mendes at PSG alongside his teammate, Virginia.

Bruno Fernandes, who's playing really, really well for United right now, and then Rafael Leal at AC Milan.

they feel like a better team.

They are, you know, they won, they beat Spain and the nation's league.

They feel like they are a team that's rounding into form right now.

They're a good team.

Even without Cristiano, who's hurt real still, it's going to be a real game.

Totally.

All right, let's move on to the national team.

So I was trying to think back of times before...

like the camp right before the World Cup roster got announced.

And when I was younger in 02, for sure this was anxiety time.

Like you need to perform to get on the team.
