U.S. coach Bruce Arena has selected 25 players as candidates to make the final roster for the U.S. match against Chile in Coquimbo, Chile, on Jan. 29. The preliminary roster includes the return of Eddie Pope (D.C. United) and Robin Fraser (Los Angeles), who missed the opening training camp of 2000 in Claremont, Calif. Pope, who played only three games for the national team in 1999, returns to the team following his recent wedding, while Fraser has spent the last few months recovering from a fractured left clavicle suffered in MLS Cup ’99. The team will gather in South Florida on Jan. 21 and train at Ft. Lauderdale’s Lockhart Stadium for four days before departing on Jan. 25 for the match in Chile. The Chile match will be televised back in the United States on select pay-per-view outlets and on DISH Network for just $19.95. The live broadcast is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET and is available on pay-per-view on the DISH Network, on C-Band TVN Satellite and on the following cable systems: Time-Warner in New York City, Cablevision Systems in the NY/NJ Metropolitan area, Boston and Connecticut, and Cox in Northern Virginia and Las Vegas.
