The U.S. men's national team followed up a win over a green Bolivia team with a predictably more difficult affair, though it will be kicking itself for letting the result slip away.
The 2-1 loss to Ireland in Dublin on Saturday, in the second of three friendlies this training camp, was the first defeat of Dave Sarachan's interim manager era, and it was largely a result of sloppy circumstances. Ultimately, the game was decided off a throw-in, with Alan Judge, fresh off the bench, taking the ball off teammate James McClean's foot and beating Bill Hamid from close range for the 90th minute winner.
