MASTROENI, WOLFF, ZAVAGNIN ADDED TO U.S. ROSTER FOR SECOND LEG
OF WORLD CUP QUALIFYING SERIES AGAINST GRENADA
Team Moves Training Camp Tomorrow to Long Island;
June 20 Qualifier to be Broadcast Live on ESPN2 at 4 p.m. ET
CHICAGO (June 13, 2004) —United States Men’s National Team Manager Bruce Arena has added Pablo Mastroeni and the Kansas City duo of Josh Wolff and Kerry Zavagnin to the U.S. roster for the second leg of the second round World Cup qualifying series against Grenada to be held June 20 at the National Stadium in St. George's, Grenada. Kickoff is set for 4 p.m. ET, and the match will be broadcast live on ESPN2 and Telemundo. Fans can also follow the match live on ussoccer.com’s MatchTracker, presented by Philips Electronics.
The trio replaces Conor Casey, Eddie Lewis and Eddie Pope on the U.S. roster, all three of whom appeared in the USA's 3-0 win in the first leg earlier today. Casey exited the match in the 21st minute and was diagnosed with a muscle strain behind the right knee that will sideline the forward for 4-6 weeks. Lewis and Pope were removed for the Grenada trip as a precautionary measure. Both players picked up yellow cards in today's game, and a caution for either player in the second leg would result in a one-game suspension for the opening match of the semifinal round.
The U.S. team travels to Long Island on Monday afternoon, and will begin training Tuesday. The 18-man contingent heads to Grenada on Friday morning, and will train twice in St. George's prior to the match.
