U.S. vs. Czech Republic

The U.S. lineup is in:

GK - Guzan
D - Cherundolo (c), Goodson, Onyewu, Bornstein
MF: Holden, Edu, Torres, Beasley
F: Buddle, Johnson

Subs: Hahnemann, Spector, Ching, Clark, Kljestan, Pearce, Marshall, Rogers, Findley, Bedoya, Gomez

Observations:
Will be interesting to see how Buddle stacks up on the international level in his first appearance since a 2003 friendly against Venezuela...

Glad to see José Torres get a shot in the starting XI. He hasn't seen the field much for the USMNT, but I wouldn't mind seeing more of what he can offer. Could turn into a late-game sub to infuse offense...

Love me some Stuart Holden. Nigel De Jong be damned...

How is Oguchi Onyewu's fitness? Onyewu believes he's ready to go. Time to find out...
