USA vs. Italy, 2018 friendly: Community Man of the Match

In their final match of what has been a wasted year the United States suffered a 1-0 loss to Italy that if we’re being honest could have been much worse. The team was dominated in possession, passing and chances created.

The final score wasn’t any worse thanks in large part to the Community Man of the Match, Ethan Horvath, who made a number of saves.

The USMNT has had a long run of excellent keepers, but with Tim Howard aging out and Brad Guzan taking a step in the wrong direction, there’s been a very unfamiliar feeling of uncertainty surrounding the position.
