The USA's final game before the start of qualifying for the 2006 World Cup will pit Bruce Arena's men against Honduras, which is coached by former U.S. national team coach Bora Milutinovic (1991-95).
Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass., will host the game June 2, 11 days before the USA faces Grenada June 13 in the first-leg of its two-game series that will determine the qualifier for CONCACAF's semifinal round.
If the USA prevails against Grenada, which hosts the second leg June 20, Gillette Stadium will host one of the six semifinal-round games — Sept. 4 vs. El Salvador or Bermuda.
The USA's next game is a friendly against Mexico in Dallas, Texas April 28.
In qualifying for the 2002 World Cup, the USA won at Honduras but fell to the Catrachos at home.
