USMNT roster for Mexico!
So I'm pretty sure I refreshed the US Soccer site (which is now gorgeous if you haven't checked out the new version!) at the exact same time as they posted the roster because the link I clicked on just said "Put text here" or something and I was like IS THAT A FILLER LINK I'M GONNA CLICK ON IT and it was the roster!
I've been waiting for this for like.....a week now, so I'm thrilled.
