TFC fans already have enough emotional anxiety supporting their beloved Reds -- the last thing they need is a conflict of interest.
Yet here comes Jozy Altidore and Michael Bradley, fresh off a month of steady training with their international teammates, representing the U.S. in a friendly match for North American supremacy.
The match -- to be played in Los Angeles on February 5th -- will be a short week following another USMNT friendly against Iceland this afternoon, January 31. Starting lineups are not finalized yet, but both Altidore and Bradley are expected to play significant roles in both matches.
