If you're reading this, you've probably heard by now that with Saturday's win in Cuba, the U.S. has won three straight road qualifiers for the first time in history. Road qualifiers, and qualifiers in general, aren't always the most glamorous games and the best team doesn't always win.

“One time before a game, we got stuck in an elevator because they turned off the power, said one former U.S. MNT star. “Another time they had horns and radios blaring outside our hotel all night. Sometimes the fire alarm goes off at 3 a.m. and keeps going off all night.”
