Return to Salt Lake City
Adu and Seitz Join U.S. Under-20s in Preparation for Argentina Friendly
Real Salt Lake MF Freddy Adu and GK Chris Seitz joined 14 fellow teammates on the United States Under-20 Men's National Team this weekend in Rochester, NY, for a brief training camp that kicked off this morning. Adu and Seitz, two of 10 players on the U.S. roster that ply their trade in Major League Soccer, are expected to return to training with Real Salt Lake this Friday, May 18 in preparation for the club's road contest at FC Dallas next Sunday.
The 16-man U.S. U-20 roster will take the next couple of days to prepare for its international friendly against defending U-20 word champion Argentina, which takes place this Tuesday, May 15 at PAETEC Park in Rochester. The Argentina match will give the Americans perhaps their best challenge in the build-up to the upcoming FIFA World Youth Championships in Canada, which kicks off on June 30. Argentina already made a trip north of the border last Friday, using a late goal to defeat tournament host Canada 3-2 at BMO Field in Toronto.
