IRENE, South Africa (AP)—Oguchi Onyewu feels ready to face England.
The big American defender hasn’t played a full 90 minutes since Oct. 10, four days before he tore his left patellar tendon during the final World Cup qualifier against Costa Rica.
He returned May 25 and played 65 minutes against the Czech Republic and entered at the start of the second half four days later versus Turkey. Coach Bob Bradley used him as a 61st-minute substitute Saturday against Australia, the last warmup ahead of the U.S. World Cup opener on Saturday.
“It was progression,” he said Tuesday. “I’m up to facing England.”
