USA looked a bit questionable today against Turkey. Hope the defense shows up better than that in two weeks, but if Dempsey can keep the form he found in the second half and Donovan can play like he did, we might be able to make some things happen.

I thought they looked good in the second half, but there were some worrying holes in the first half, both between defenders and between defence and midfield.
Still, it was a better performance than England's against Mexico.
