Klinsmann added to USMNT roster for England and Italy friendlies

Jonathan Klinsmann has been named to the United States national team roster after Zack Steffen was forced to withdraw with injury, U.S. Soccer has announced.

Steffen was in action on Sunday for the Columbus Crew in the second leg of their Eastern Conference semifinal with the New York Red Bulls.

While Steffen went the distance in goal for the Crew in their 3-0 loss which saw them eliminated from the MLS playoffs, U.S. Soccer said in a statement he aggravated a right hamstring injury in the defeat.

The injury was originally picked up while on international duty with the USMNT against Colombia in October.
