Bruce Arena Goals Quotations

What this group has managed to do is not let anything get in the way of their goals in qualifying and winning games. We miss a player due to an injury or a suspension, they don't blink an eye, they just move forward. If they're in games where the officiating may be a little bit questionable, it doesn't bother them. They just keep their concentration and get after the task at hand.

He's certainly capable. He's a guy who's good around the goal. ... He scored three goals. That's sometimes how you're graded as a striker, and if that's the case, he gets an A for today. All three goals were great.

He scores goals in big games and that's what a real goal scorer is about. Obviously, he's one player that we have to focus on.

This is obviously a great win for the United States and we're pleased to have qualified for Germany. In the second half, getting those two early goals made the difference in the game.
