U.S. U-18s open up Milk Cup defense with 2-0 win over Israel

Goals by Omar Salgado and Jerome Kiesewetter led the United States Under 18 national team to a 2-0 win over Israel Monday afternoon.

Defending the 2010 Milk Cup title from a summer ago, Salgado headed home a cross from Pateadores attacker Jose Villareal in the second half after the two teams entered halftime tied 0-0. Kiesewetter, a member of Hertha Berlin’s youth squad, added a second insurance goal in stoppage time.

The U.S. continues Milk Cup play on Wednesday (3 pm ET) when they take on Mexico.

U.S. XI: Cody Cropper; Boyd Okwuonu (Jalen Robinson, 45), Walker Zimmerman, Bryan Gallego, Juan Ocegueda; Jordan McCrary, Jose Villareal (Luis Gil, 69), Will Packwood; Jerome Kiesewetter (Javan Torre, 90+), Omar Salgado (Victor Pineda, 84), Michael Ambrose (Marcus Salandy-Defour, 45)

As the U.S. U-20 roster comes together this summer for a training session in Vichy, France, it will also serve as a cruel reminder for the team’s failed quest to make the trip to Colombia for this summer’s Under 20 World Cup.

That point has already been digested, however, and with Tab Ramos in charge of the U-20s this time around, it’s a group that has one eye on the next cycle with six players included in the group who will still be eligible for the next cycle. Rongen is likely to be involved in some capacity, although it’s no longer as coach.

Just two college players remain in this group, and that number could soon become one depending on what happens with Kelyn Rowe. He’s certainly a player who would benefit from moving to a league abroad, assuming he settles in and fits the right club. A return to UCLA wouldn’t be a bad thing too, of course.

Here’s a look at the roster: Continue reading ‘U.S. U-20 roster announced for France training session’
