Lee Nguyen was always one of the more technically gifted players in the USMNT player pool. For 15 years he played all over the globe, from the Netherlands to Vietnam, Los Angeles to Boston.
On Friday, he announced his retirement to focus on coaching, re-signing as an assistant coach with the NWSL’s Washington Spirit.

Una vez terminado el partido entre México y Panamá, Gibrán Araige, reportero en cancha de TUDN, se acercó a Memo Ochoa para registrar sus impresiones de la victoria del Tri sobre los canaleros. La conversación eventualmente se fue a las críticas que está recibiendo el equipo por su nivel de juego y al compromiso de los jugadores con el proceso de Gerardo Martino. Ochoa no evadió la consulta, pero pronto su respuesta se transformó en un dardo a los ex futbolistas que hacen de analista en la cadena televisiva.
After the USMNT beat Honduras 3-0 in frigid Minnesota, Christian Pulisic was visibly annoyed at having to answer questions from a Fox Sports reporter about scoring a brace when he only scored one goal (he had one disallowed by offside). He just wanted to get inside and warm up, and who can blame him when the weather was so miserable two Honduran players reportedly had to be treated for mild hypothermia.
Brentford manager Thomas Frank said on Thursday Christian Eriksen could be the club's "greatest signing" ever and he hoped the Danish midfielder would be able to make his Premier League debut within a few weeks.
The 29-year-old player joined Brentford as a free agent on Monday, seven months after he suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch during a European Championship match.
Eriksen's former club Inter Milan ended his contract in December because he is not permitted to play in Serie A due to the presence of a heart starter device (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator).
The United States men’s national team’s victory against Honduras in the freezing Minnesota cold is going to be a game talked about for years down the road.
The USMNT is one step away from qualifying for the World Cup after taking care of business on Wednesday night against an already eliminated Honduras side in "the coldest game ever."
I was on hand in Saint Paul to watch Kellyn Acosta again demonstrate why those who mocked his nomination for 2021 U.S. Soccer Male Player of the Year deserve to be ostracized from our country and to see Christian Pulisic exorcise that lecherous demon known as Thomas Tuchel.
Son pocos los puntos positivos que dejó la victoria de México sobre Panamá en las Eliminatorias Catar 2022. Sí, el Tri ganó y quedó más cerca del Mundial, sin embargo, la imagen de juego que dejó el equipo del Tata Martino es alarmante. Da la sensación incluso de que los jugadores no están disfrutando de lo que hacen.
México sobrevivió a Panamá gracias a un dudoso penal en contra de Diego Lainez y mantuvo intactas sus esperanzas de conseguir un boleto a Catar 2022.
Mexico secured a tough three points at Estadio Azteca Wednesday night with a narrow 1-0 victory against Panama. The win was anything but confident from El Tri as a late penalty was the only thing to separate the two sides.
Panama looked comfortable inside the mostly empty Estadio Azteca — Mexico was serving its final game with limited attendance after punishments for homophobic chants — and had the better chances in the first half.
Héctor Herrera pulled off some goal line heroics in the 12th minute to deny Panama from taking the lead.
