U.S. to face Canada in Toronto
CHICAGO -- The U.S. men's soccer team will play its final tuneup before World Cup qualifying against Canada on on June 3 in Toronto.
U.S. soccer said in a release Thursday night the Americans will play its first match in Canada since 1997 as part of centennial celebrations for the Canada Soccer Association. The U.S. team then begins qualifying for the 2014 World Cup five days later at home against Antigua and Barbuda in Group A of the semifinal round.
Canada will go to Cuba for a Group C game.
The last time the teams met in Canada, the United States won 3-0 to qualify for the 1998 World Cup in France.
