PHOENIX, US: Mexico rallied from a two-goal halftime deficit to earn a 2-2 draw with the USA yesterday in an international friendly.
After suffering a 2-0 defeat in a friendly against Ukraine, Jurgen Klinsmann’s United States were looking for a better performance against their North American rivals. With only 10 weeks remaining before the World Cup kicks off in Brazil, Klinsmann’s starting 11 included a few surprises, with Brad Davis getting the starting nod ahead of Landon Donovan and Chris Wondolowski rather than Eddie Johnson.AFP
