A 13-match winless streak against South American squads came to an end tonight when Ricardo Clark finally found net in the final moments of stoppage time of the United States' friendly against Venezuela.


It's an upset, if you believe ESPN's national team power rankings, though neither team was fielding their A-squad. The Clark goal came on the 19th and final shot in a match mostly dominated by the Americans. [ESPN3]
