U.S. Men’s Soccer Veteran Jozy Altidore Excited to Play Exhibition Match in Chattanooga

Chattanooga-(WDEF) The U.S.Men’s soccer team went through another workout Thursday night at Finley Stadium before their exhibition match Friday night.
Bruce Arena’s team has a ‘Friendly at Finley’ against Jamaica.
When you think about it, Team USA has played in all the big arena’s around the world.
And yet on Friday night, they’ll be here in Chattanooga in the 20-thousand-seat Finley Stadium.
And veteran Jozy Altidore thinks that’s kind of cool.
Said Altidore:”It’s definitely a change of pace. It’s kind of fun to be honest with you. It’s really fun because you get to see a different hot bed that people don’t talk about maybe as much. To come to a place that is so excited to have us. Obviously every city is excited to have us, but Chattanooga a little bit more because maybe they don’t get so many of our games. You walk around town, you see the excitement from so many people. We’re excited to be here. And hopefully we’ll put out an effort they’ll be proud of tomorrow night.”
The U.S. and Jamaica match will get underway at 7pm on Friday.
