The good news is that Orozco-Fiscal is not starting at CB.
The bad news is that the USMNT are playing three holding midfielders and none of them are Michael Bradley.
Bosnia-Portugal
been a good game so far but Portugal creating all the chances. Ivica Olic has already got Croatia a vital away goal in their playoff with Turkey. And Scotland are winning :o

Of course they also allowed Cyprus to score, so that's kind of embarassing.

Yeah but Scotland don't win away friendlies a lot
Haven’t won one since 2007. And Cyprus did get a 4-4 at Portugal in the first game of Euro 2012 qualifying.

Not in the stand from what I've seen.
Nothing major yet, but a couple incidents that might’ve been red if it was a different ref.
