Where to Watch: World Cup Qualifying Playoffs Friday

It's the end of the road for the U.S. Men's National Team in 2013...


Qualified for next summer's FIFA World Cup for two months, Jurgen Klinsmann will take a last look at his side with a pair of European friendlies beginning this afternoon at Scotland (LIVE 2pm CT on ESPN2, UniMas & WatchESPN). They'll close out the calendar year with another friendly Tuesday at Austria (LIVE 1:45pm CT on NBC Sports Network, UniMas).


Here's hoping Fire goalkeeper Sean Johnson gets some time in one of the matches over the next week.



While the USMNT can continue their prep for Brazil, a number of European and African sides are still playing for their World Cup lives this weekend.
