CASA GRANDE, Ariz. – Juan Agudelo was made to wait – and wait – for his chance to take the field on Sunday afternoon in San Diego, but the 24-year-old New England Revolution forward eventually made his 22nd international appearance in the U.S. National Team’s 0-0 draw with Serbia.
Agudelo entered the friendly in the 87th minute – replacing Portland Timbers midfielder Darlington Nagbe – and although he was only given a few minutes to make an impact, he so nearly did, turning dangerously inside the box only to be blocked as he tried to maneuver onto his left foot for a close-range shot.
