First Game of 2 against Jamaica in 5 days. Kickoff is at 8PM Eastern/5PM PST in Kingston. Notable absence for the United States is Landon Donovan, due to an injury sustained during a friendly against Mexico where the US won 1-0 in the Azteca. Also, the other US star Clint Dempsey (who has just been transferred to Tottenham) hasn't played in a competitive match since June, due to transfer drama and Fullham being Fullham.

World Cup qualification is done normally as groups, each member of that group playing each other home and away.
The two top of each group qualify for the Finals.
Just seen the result, not a good one for the US.
