A bit less MLS

SportsTicker reports that in addition to being without his usual US Men's National Team players, Coach Bruce Arena will be missing a few more. In addition to Landon Donovan missing the game because of a strained calf and Clint Dempsey staying home for bad-boy behaviour, my adored Frankie Hejduk won't be there either, due to a hamstring strain. He's been replaced by Hamburg SV midfielder Benny Feilhaber. So that brings down to 10 the MLS presence on the 19-man roster.
