Two members of Cuba’s national soccer team have gone missing during the team’s trip to Washington for a World Cup qualifying match, the team’s coach told reporters on Friday.

“It is always a problem for the Cuba team,” coach Reinhold Fanz told the Washington Post. “We have security, but you can’t handcuff them to their rooms.”

The Post identified the players as midfielder Pedro Faife, 24, and forward Reynier Alcantara, 26.

US Men In D.C. - Day 2

Filed under: US National Team, Videos


Just listening in to Bob’s talk before practice sets the tone for what he expects and it shows throughout the session.  Pretty impressive speed and movement of the ball in possession and the finishing in that small side game is at a pretty damn high level.

Bob’s right when he’s talking at the end, the U.S. team has been picking up where they left off and taking care of results when they should.  The biggest test for this team is going to be away in Mexico City and away in San Jose, Costa Rica.
