Comments U.S. knocks down Poland 3-0
![]() |
The United States beat Poland 3-0 at Wisla Stadium in Krakow, Poland Wednesday evening.
The first goal was set up by a 12th minute free kick by Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder Landon Donovan. He earned his 99th Career cap. Later, Fulham defender Carlos Bocanegra headed in the perfectly placed cross inside the near post from the top of the six-yard box for his ninth career goal to give the visitors a 1-0 lead. Poland had fair chances near the half-hour mark. However, Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard saved Jacek Krzynowek’s low shot from the top of the 18-yard box and three minutes later dived to his left to push away Dariusz Dudka’s attempt for a corner kick. Eddie Johnson nearly made it a 3-0 halftime lead, but the Fulham striker’s attempt to capitalize off a Polish defensive miscue resulted in another corner kick, one of six for the U.S. in the first half.
