Bradley passes Dempsey to become third all time in USMNT caps

Michael Bradley moved further up the United States national team’s history books Tuesday night in its 1-1 draw against Peru.

The 31-year-old Toronto FC midfielder didn’t get to start the contest against the South American side, but came on as a substitute for Kellyn Acosta in the 79th minute.

In the process, Bradley earned his 142nd cap for the national team, which moved him into third place all time for the USMNT.

Bradley had briefly been tied with his long-time international teammate Clint Dempsey after the midfielder's outing against Colombia last week.

Landon Donovan sits second on that list with 157 caps and 1990’s USMNT star Cobi Jones is top with 164.
