Oh Canada

Well, the US has kept its Olympic hopes alive and the US MNT coach employed for the moment, with a 2 - 0 against Canada in Sandy Utah.

Now, we are not out of the woods just yet as the US U23 still needs to beat Columbia in March, in Rio no less. I'll say too that if the US Qualifies for the Olympics, I think Jurgen's job is safe through the 2018 World Cup. 

That said he has his work cut out for him as our efforts to qualify for the World Cup really start in November. A full listing can be seen here for all CONCACAF.

... and if you think the pressure is not mounting on our NMT coach, just take a look at recent comments from Landon Donovan.
