USA soccer hosts Jamaica at Audi Field

Team USA men’s soccer is coming to our Nation’s Capital in the newest soccer stadium in town.

The US Men’s National Team will host Jamaica in an international friendly Wednesday night. Kickoff is at 7 p.m., and you can catch the game on FS1.

The USMNT is preparing for Gold Cup action and has been training at nearby Annapolis, Maryland at the Naval Academy. Head Coach Gregg Berhalter recently added 19 players to bring his roster to 28 ahead of the game. That will have to be trimmed down to 23 at midnight.

“After a great week of training we now enter the phase of playing competitive matches,” said Berhalter. “The game against Jamaica will represent an opportunity for us to evaluate new prospects as well as continue to develop the group for the Gold Cup. We are excited about the group coming in and the opportunity ahead of us this summer.”

USA will head to Cincinnati to take on Venezuela June 9 for the final game before the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
