For the second straight day, Bob Bradley put the group through an intense session consisting of some technical work followed by shooting exercises and small-sided games. The shooting exercises were particularly brutal on the goalkeepers, with balls flying into the net from every angle - we'll have highlights later today.
After training we returned to the hotel to learn that the team would be getting the afternoon off - good times! Guys have left to go hang out at the mall, while some have stayed in the hotel to watch the Germany - Portugal quarterfinal.
Speaking of which, our Euro 2008 pool is picking up speed, with separation being created between top and bottom (which is where the MNT Blog resides - nice job France!). Brad Guzan currently leads everybody with Sacha Kljestan and Jay DeMerit within striking distance. It'll be close down the stretch...

Seconding Jab's question. Is there any reason to not announce the travel roster until Friday?
yes, they want to wait until after the MLS game tonight, because players from that game may be called in. That's why the roster won't be released until tomorrow.
I've got a Netherlands-Spain final with the Oranje coming out on top with Germany taking 3rd. However, Italy never fails to spoil the fun, even when they lose (see: Italy v. South Korea, WC 2002). They can take 4th. That's all the respect I'm willing to give them. :-)
