United States vs Jamaica on ESPN2
Giants Stadium | East Rutherford, NJ | 7:30 pm

U.S. IMPROVE 2002 HOME MARK TO 8-0-1 WITH 2-1 WIN OVER URUGUAY: The U.S. Men’s National Team opened the "Nike Road to Korea" with a 2-1 win over World Cup bound Uruguay on Sunday at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C.

Tony Sanneh and DaMarcus Beasley each scored their second career goal for the U.S. in the win. The victory was the USA’s fifth of the year against teams that have qualified for the 2002 World Cup (in eight overall matches). Playing in front of a boisterous crowd of 30,413 fans, the U.S. extended its undefeated home record to 8-0-1 in 2002 and will look to continue that streak when they face Jamaica on Thursday at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.

Chevrolet Man of the Match Beasley was dangerous all afternoon, recording the game-winning goal in the 40th minute. Beasley helped create the first goal, earning a corner kick with his work on the left flank. Agoos curled the ensuing free kick to the near post, where an onrushing Tony Sanneh nodded the ball just under the bar into the upper left corner of the net.
