June 20, 2013


It's the day before the big game against Spain! Yesterday we practiced at the Galatasaray Annex field which is where the Galatasaray Academy does most of their training. Today was a mostly free day so the players could get focused for tomorrow. We practiced at around 4pm at Turk Telecom Arena which is Galatasaray's game field. It was a short but very sharp training for us, now just on to tomorrow. 


Watch Kendall McIntosh and the U-20 USMNT in their opening match of group play vs. Spain - tomorrow, 10:45 a.m. PT on ESPN2, WatchESPN.
