Happy camper

Rico Clark might be one of the U.S. players to watch for in the future. One of the things he offers in his skillset is a pretty nice shot from distance. I was curious if the U.S. camp coaches were emphasizing using that as an offensive weapon. Here's Clark's response.

"I think anytime you get around the goal, you should be ambitious, whether you’re a midfielder, forward, what-not. There’s nothing wrong with shooting. Now, that’s not really what I’m going to be going after in the game. Like I said, I want to fulfill my role, play one-two touch and keep the ball moving, be a connection on the team. But if I’m around the goal, I’m definitely going to shoot, especially in a game."
