The U.S. Men’s soccer team will face #1 ranked Brazil on Sunday at Solid Field in Chicago at 4:00 pm Eastern. The game will be broadcast live on ESPN 2 and Univision. U.S. head coach Bob Bradley has named the 19-man roster for his 17th ranked team. The U.S. roster includes 13 players from the squad that captured the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup in Chicago. Los Angeles Galaxy forward Landon Donovan leads the team. He had four goals in the Gold Cup and has nine goals in 11 matches this year. Clint Dempsey is another star for the United States. The defender had his 50th international appearance in the match against Sweden last week. Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard has already posted ten shutouts in 23 career games for the United States. Glasgow Rangers midfielder DaMarcus Beasley has three goals and three assists in 2007. He was the second leading scorer in the Gold Cup for the United States.

United States Under-17 Team in Second Round
The U.S. Under-17 Men’s National Team is in the Round of 16 of the FIFA Under-17 World Cup. They defeated Belgium 2-0 in their third and final Group E match to advance to the second round. Kirk Urso and Mykell Bates had the goals for the United States. With Tunisia’s victory over Tajikistan, the U.S. went from fourth to second in the group and will now play Germany who finished first in Group F on Thursday. This is the third straight time the U.S. has advanced to the second round at the FIFA U-17 World Cup. “We’re very happy, and we’ve accomplished our first goal, which was to get out of our group,” said U.S. Under-17 Men’s National Team head coach John Hackworth. “We had moments in our two previous games that were pretty good, but we didn’t do well for 90 minutes in those games. Today we stuck to our game plan throughout and didn’t get rattled by anything.”

The Los Angeles Galaxy may have one of soccer’s biggest stars in David Beckham but so far he has not helped them win any games. The Galaxy lost 3-0 to Chivas USA Thursday night at home, despite the fact that Beckham played all 90 minutes of the game.

Beckham played all 90 minutes in England's 2-1 loss to Germany in a friendly on Wednesday, then flew to Los Angeles Thursday and played the full game for the Galaxy. Los Angeles has lost all three MLS games Beckham has played in. The Galaxy is winless in their last six games and has an overall record of 3-9-5 and is not looking good to make the playoffs. The Galaxy remains 12 points behind the Columbus Crew for the final MLS playoff spot.

MLS Playoff Race Update
With two months remaining in the MLS regular season the playoff race is heating up. Currently five Eastern Conference teams are in position to qualify for the MLS Playoffs which would mean a spot would be taken away from the Western Conference where only three teams would qualify. That can change in the final two months though, especially with teams like Los Angeles and Real Salt Lake having the most games left to play.
The two conference leaders, the New England Revolution and the Houston Dynamo, have played the most games in the MLS so far this season. Each of those two teams has just eight games left. Conversely, the Galaxy has 14 games remaining while Real Salt Lake and Chivas USA each have 12 games left to play.

Beckham Questionable for England
Soccer Betting Preview
David Beckham will be part of the England team for their friendly on Wednesday against Germany but it is uncertain whether or not he will play. Beckham made his first Major League Soccer start on Saturday and played the entire game as the Los Angeles Galaxy lost 5-4 to the New York Red Bulls.

Beckham had two assists in the game but was seen limping on his left ankle at times. It remains to be seen whether he will be fit enough to play on Wednesday against Germany. "Only time will tell," he said. "I've got to see how it is on Sunday. It's swollen up at the moment but that was always going to happen. I'm traveling to London on Sunday morning to meet up with the team and hopefully I'll be playing some sort of role on Wednesday."
"I was surprised to actually play 90 minutes," Beckham said. "The manager and the coaching staff kept asking me if I wanted to come off. But I'm quite a stubborn person on and off the field. When we were winning I didn't want to come off and when we were losing I didn't want to come off. I think my stubbornness took over and I didn't want to come off the pitch."
