Lewis' shifty moves and quickness wreaked havoc on the left flank,

 

There were several players who stepped up their play in the second half, but Lewis and Lennon were pivotal to the turnaround. Lewis kept steady pressure on the Haitian defense, with quick dribbles and dangerous passes.

 

Lewis continued his impressive rise in 2017. A late Generation Adidas signing ahead of the MLS draft, Lewis wowed at the combine, leading New York City FC to trade $250,000 in allocation money (a record price for a draft pick) to trade up and select him with the third overall pick. Lewis carried that momentum into U.S. U-20 camp, where he played his way onto the qualifying roster. On Tuesday, Lewis looked every bit like a player who will be tough for Ramos to put back on the bench after starting him in place of Real Salt Lake's Sebastian Saucedo.

That includes NYCFC left winger Jonathan Lewis, who came on against Haiti and has been the Americans’ best player over the breadth of their last two blowout wins.

Parchman: Here's how the USA beat Mexico for the first time in 31 years

 

Former Zip Jonathan Lewis came on in the 80th minute to help seal the win for the US U20's. He's also been instrumental in helping his team get to this point. Hopefully, the US U20's can draw or defeat El Salvador on Friday (3/3), or Mexico loses to El Salvador on Wednesday (3/1).

...USA head coach Bruce Arena said: “DeAndre has been in LA this past week and examined by our team doctors. “We realise he is not going to be able to go to these next two matches against Honduras and Panama. “It is likely he will be out for about five weeks. I would expect he will be back on the field for Newcastle right at the end of this season in April.” ...

Anybody know of a local establishment showing Thursday night's USA vs. T & T on FS1?  If so, anyone up for a meet and greet (and view and brew?)?

 

You might check with American Outlaws - Akron Chapter. I'm traveling early the next day...so, I'll pass.

Both DeAndre and Bobby Wood, starters and attacking stars for both Jurgen and Bruce were left off the Gold Cup roster by Arena.

 

This article shows ten WCQ players who are not present for Gold Cup.  Either their club teams have denied permission, or the players and teams jointly determined they were better served playing club football.    http://www.nydailynews.com/newswires/sports/goalkeeper-jesse-gonzalez-preliminary-gold-cup-roster-article-1.3219580

 

I tweeted DA, and he has not gotten back. lol  So I'll have to go over his head, straight to his Big Bro.  (Uncle Tank)  ;)

DeAndre (miss his honey badger hair!)  sure looked better last night when they brought him up from FB to press the issue more.  His assist and the passes on the second goal by The Kid was/were pretty good....:thumb:
