Unlikely hero tonight! Where have you been Eddie Johnson? Big thanks to Jozy Altidore if you aren't gonna put forth the effort, keep making an *** out of yourself on twitter so that Jurgen plays hungry players. Here's hoping Jermaine Jones can say something stupid on twitter and get a twitter ban form Jurgen.
God bless you Eddie Johnson. Just got a chance to watch this match off of the DVR and I did not have a good feeling at all the whole second half. The postage stamp sized pitch was ridiculous, but hey, take the three points and fly back to KC with a grin on your face.
Is anybody headed down to KC for the Guatemala match? They beat Jamaica tonight so the US and Guatemala are sitting on 10 pts while Jamaica has 7. Both the US and Guatemala are plus 3 in goal differential on Jamaica so the Reggae Boyz are going to have to destroy Antigua and Barbuda to make things interesting. That late goal from EJ tonight definitely makes things a bit less stressful.
One more match to go tomorrow (Tuesday) night. Fabian Johnson will be out for this one as well. He's apparently still dealing with flu-like symptoms so they didn't even have him fly over from Germany. I haven't heard anything about the others that were out with injuries so we'll have to see if those guys are available or not.
The match in KC has the potential to be a real snooze fest as both the US and Guatemala advance to the Hexagonal with a draw. Neither team has incentive to play for the win so it will be interesting to see how this one plays out.

I'll be there. Come find the AO tailgate (info here: USMNT vs. Guatemala (10/16/12) « The American Outlaws – US Soccer Supporters) if you're going to be there. A bunch of people from the Des Moines AO chapter will be down there. I should have my huge American flag flying unless it's mega windy, so look for that. I'll be around there.

It will be interesting to see how the formation plays if it plays like my attachment a more of a 4-1-3-2 or more of the 4-2-4 that they played in Antigua
Edit - HAHA I put Goodson and Cameron in as the Central D pairing without even realizing it and guess who costs us the first goal? Boca. Hey Boca that looked awefully similar to they way you let Gyan get behind you to end our 2010 WC
Scoring fast and furious so far. Guatemala put one up really early and USA has answered with 2 - all before the 20:00 mark. 2-1 USA.
Chuck Lidell: I paint my toenails with pink and black polish. Problem is, I get more paint on my toes and on the carpet than on my nails. Any advice? Maria Sharapova: Don't you beat up other guys for a living? I don't know how to answer this.

Great passing on all three goals, nice to see some short passing on that third goal. Jurgen's style shinining through. Nice to see Eddie Johnson playing well. Think he made his case to be put ahead of jozy on the depth chart? On to the hexagonal! USA! USA! USA!
If the score stays this way it will be USA and GAU advancing thanks to A&B late goal.
There are not many crowds or places in the country that have a better impact on the game than at Iowa State. The Cyclone fans are truly a sixth man. The place is so loud and always a fantastic crowd." - Former Kansas and current North Carolina head coach Roy Williams
