Come join Minnesota supporters of the Men’s National Team, along with readers of IMSoccer News, duNord Futbol, Dark Clouds supporters group and the Minneapolis/St. Paul branch of the American Outlaws for a US National Team watch party.

The US National Team plays Spain in a friendly on Saturday, June 4 with a 3:30 p.m. CT kick off. The game will be carried live from Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, MA, on ESPN and Univision. Fans can also follow the match live via ussoccer.com’s MatchTracker and on Twitter.

For those hard core soccer supporters, they can stick around and watch the NSC Stars vs the Atlanta Silverbacks, live streamed and on the TVs at the Sweetwater. That game starts at 6:30 CT as the Stars attempt to move back into 2nd place in the NASL against Atlanta who have yet to win this season.

    I see no hope for the US in this match-up with Altidore in the line-up and Buddle not even on the roster.

    It was watching a bunch of 11 year olds play some adults. Spain was classic, the US not.

    We have a lot of work to do…..
