U.S. replaces Mexico with Brazil

Soccer Betting Lines

08/14/2007 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The United States Men's National Team will play Brazil on Sept. 9 instead of Mexico.

The United States was scheduled to play at Mexico but the game was canceled because of financial problems. Instead of visiting Mexico, the U.S. will host No. 1-ranked Brazil in Chicago, Ill., on Sept. 9.

"It is a very exciting opportunity for our players to get to play perhaps the most storied team in the world," U.S. coach Bob Bradley said. "I have told our players many times that these are special games, and we need to take advantage of the opportunity. We are very much looking forward to the challenge."

This will be the first game between Brazil and the U.S. since the 2003 Gold Cup semifinals, which Brazil won 2-1 in overtime. The United States is 1-11 against the Brazilians, with its only win in the 1998 Gold Cup.

Brazil, which also plays Mexico in an exhibition on Sept. 12 in Foxborough, Mass., is expected to have stars Ronaldinho and Kaka - who didn't play in the team's recent Copa America win.

The U.S. had been scheduled to play Mexico at Azetca Stadium in Mexico City on Sept 9. in a rematch of the Gold Cup final. The U.S. rallied to win that match 2-1. The United States has not played in Mexico since 1984.

The United States visits Sweden in another international friendly on Aug. 22.

"We have developed a tremendous schedule for 2007, and adding Brazil is another important piece of the puzzle as we continue to build our team towards World Cup qualifying next year," Bradley said.

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game

How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.

A two-time Pro Bowler, Green was going into a feet-first hook slide when he was knocked unconscious by a thunderous, head-snapping hit from Cincinnati's Robert Geathers.

Oddsmakers at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com currently have the Chiefs listed as 7-point favorites versus the 49ers.

The 49ers got beat by Philadelphia 38-24 as a 6.5-point underdog last week. The combined score went OVER the posted over/under total (42.5).

Alex Smith completed 27-of-46 passes for 293 yards with a touchdown. Michael Robinson rushed for 29 yards and a pair of touchdowns on five carries.

The Chiefs lost 9-6 to Denver last week as an 11-point underdog. The combined score was well UNDER the posted over/under total (38).

Larry Johnson rushed for 126 yards on 27 carries. Damon Huard completed 17-of-23 passes for 133 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions.
