In Tom Dooley’s last international cap, the Yanks squeaked out a win.

58’
Ben Olsen turns home this cross to give the US the lead. 

64’
Roberto Cartes picks up the ball and beats #OneCapHero Tom Prethus from a way out.

65’
A goal Eddie Lewis won’t forget - his first for the #USMNT.

After the long ball in, Brian McBride contests it to try and knock it down.
