I saw Ching's header later too off of the cross, which is what he does.

What formation did Honduras come out in? I know we're talking our B team against an A- poor team at best, but taking a draw into the 75th minute? Were they bunkering? And what did we come out with?
i'm not up on the technicalities of soccer, but it just seemed our midfield was reluctant to make anything happen....always moving sideways or backwards, but never attacking or finding people or taking risks...and Adu, outisde of a couple nice passes, did nothing but lose possession..like Dempsey on his worst day kind of lazy, imo...Adu never seems to give 100, which baffles me when you have that much natural talent...

as soon as Davies and Feilhaber came in, the game changed..we could have had 3-4 goals in the last 15 minutes...

Rodgers (who i was unfamiliar with, don't get to see US play much) continued to impress me, anyways. Seems to be everywhere and plays with a lot of confidence and some good skill. I thought he was the best player over these 2 games.

and the first goal we scored was beautiful...
