McBride retires from international play
U.S. Men’s National Team forward, Brian McBride, has hung up his international boots.
McBride is the second all-time leading scorer for the U.S. and the only player to score for that side in multiple World Cups. His aerial attack was first-rate and his tenacity was unparalleled. Though often beaten and bruised, McBride always exhibited class.
McBride fans can watch him ply his trade for Fulham in the Premiership.
