 ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - The U.S. national team heads to Mexico City this week to face Mexico in a World Cup qualifier with depth, momentum and a rising rookie star in Eddie Johnson.
Whether that's enough to get the Americans their first win on Mexican soil — they're 0-21-1 all-time — remains to be seen.
"You don't play on a level playing field in Mexico," U.S. coach Bruce Arena said Saturday after the Americans beat Honduras 1-0 in an exhibition match that served as the final tuneup for the qualifier next Sunday at Azteca Stadium.
