2) Jermaine Jones brushes aside the opening day blues
Trending
After a sub-par start to the campaign, the USA were heavily criticised. But one particular player who was lambasted more than anyone else was Jermaine Jones. The midfielder had a forgetful evening at the Lewi’s stadium, yet Klinsmann opted to stick to the midfielder in their second group game, and the Colorado Rapids star repaid the faith.
Pulling the strings with great aplomb this time, Jones chiefly regained the possession in the midfield and carried it forward to instigate attacks. He was unplayable in the midfield and capped off a terrific evening with an equally terrific goal.
The US no.13 turned back the clock with a resounding display and put the disappointment of matchday one long, long behind him.
