Landon Celebrates 100

12 June 2008

tags: donovan, feature, mnt, usa
No, we're not talking birthday candles. Against Argentina last Sunday, at the ripe old age of 26, Landon Donovan sprinted to his 100th cap for the US MNT. Along the way to becoming the fourth-youngest player in world soccer history to reach the century mark, Landon's scored more goals (35) than anyone else in men's national team history. And, he's helped carry American soccer, internationally and domestically, to a place it's never been before.

From Gold Cups to World Cups, border battles to friendlies, Landon's served as an ambassador of the game, a captain for our senior team and, as we saw against Argentina, a difference maker when he's on the pitch. Unlike most players with 100 international appearances, we can celebrate his achievements with the knowledge that, barring the exceptional, he'll be around for 2010 and beyond.

Congrats Landon. Here's to 200!
