USA at Switzerland is confirmed -- Oct. 17 at a venue to be determined. The last time they faced each other was in the 1994 World Cup when Wynalda scored on an outrageous free kick at the Silverdome.

USA vs. Catalonia (yes, the region of Spain) is confirmed -- Oct. 14 at Nou Camp in Barcelona (I told you it would be intriguing!). Brazil played them before the '02 World Cup, Costa Rica faced them in '06. So for this friendly against the United States, expect a team of players of Catalan descent who are not playing for Spain's national team that week. This team has drawn big crowds at Nou Camp the last several years.

Considering it is the year after a World Cup, a decent schedule for the USA: Mexico, Ecuador, Gold Cup, Copa America, Sweden, Switzerland and this interesting other one.

Also, USA roster for the China match on June 2 will be unveiled Tuesday.
