ODURO, NYARKO MADE DEBUT FOR GHANA WEDNESDAY NIGHT

“To be on the field when the national anthem was playing was a very special moment,” said Nyarko.  “I wondered if this was all a dream. I was actually a little star-struck, seeing guys like Sulley and Derek that I watched growing up.  Anytime you get to play for your country, it’s a great honor.”

Ruiz and Garcia on the move

Carlos Ruiz on on his way out of FC Dallas and going back to his first MLS team the LA Galaxy. The Galaxy paid an undisclosed amount of allocation money as well as a 2nd round draft pick to bring Ruiz back to LA. The Kansas City Wizards have sent a quality defender, Nick Garcia, to the San Jose Earthquakes in exchange for the first overall pick in the expansion draft that will take place this Friday. It is rumored that the Wizards will Patrick Nyarko to replace Eddie Johnson who is rumored to be on his way to Fulham. Nyarko is a native of Ghana playing for Virginia Tech. He is one of three finalists for the Hermann Trophy, which is awarded to the nation's best player. Nyarko has college eligibility left but will be coming to the MLS rather than finishing his collegiate career.
