[ROSTER] Coach Bob Bradley has named a 19-man roster for the USA’s friendly against Brazil on Sept. 9 in Chicago that includes 14 European-based players. Among the MLS players is Landon Donovan, who will be looking to set a U.S. national team record by scoring his 35th goal. 1860 Munich’s Josh Wolff returns to the squad for the first time since the 2006 World Cup.
Benny Feilhaber, who has yet to see action for Derby County since joining the EPL club this season from Germany’s Hamburg SV, has a chance to play against his native land. Feilhaber immigrated with his family to the USA from Brazil at age 6.
The U.S. roster includes 13 players from the squad that captured the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
