📋 Friendly

First of two friendlies after January Camp and the first is a comeback capped in the 90th. 

13’

Kristinn Steindorsson opens the scoring for Iceland after some poor defending and a deflection. (1/5)

20’

Jozy Altidore restored order a handful of minutes later.

Lee Nguyen into Gyasi Zardes before the nice lay-off into Michael Bradley. One touch and a through pass finds Altidore in the box and we are level. (2/5)

48’

Just after the break, some clever moves from Aron Sigurdson set up a shot that beats Luis Robles.

59’

A Bradley corner eventually fell to Altidore in the box. His dinked ball was headed on by Steve Birnbaum and Michael Orozco is there to pounce.

90’

On another Bradley set-piece, the Americans win it.

This time, Birnbaum meets it in the air and he finds the back of the net.
