Union's Bedoya on U.S. squad for World Cup qualifiers vs. Mexico, Costa Rica

CHICAGO (AP) - Defender Geoff Cameron, midfielder Kyle Beckerman and forward Chris Wondolowski will miss the United States' World Cup qualifiers against Mexico and Costa Rica because of injuries, and Tim Howard has regained the No. 1 goalkeeper's job.

Howard, now 37, took a year off from the national team following the World Cup, then late in 2015 and alternated with Brad Guzan.

Guzan started at this year's Copa America and while Howard has been a regular since leaving Everton to join Major League Soccer's Colorado team this summer, the 32-year-old Guzan has not appeared with Middlesbrough in England's Premier League since Aug.
