While the first half was an entertaining, back-and-forth affair that was surprisingly scoreless at the break, the second half was dull and even more disjointed. The eventual scoreless draw was a fair result for two sides that looked stuck in mud. Poor touches, bad giveaways and ugly finishing punctuated the messy 90 minutes of action. Neither side truly deserved a victory. The United States probably had the better chances in front of goal, but the likes of Matthew Hoppe, Paxten Aaronson and Brandon Vazquez couldn’t put away their chances....

If they are both wrong, then what’s right? Alignment is only a small piece of the puzzle. What works for one design might be inappropriate for another layout. As with all layouts, it depends on the purpose of the piece, the audience and its expectations, the fonts, the margins, and white space, and other elements on the page.

Smith, 21, is among the handful of gifted young attacking players the United States women’s national team expects to carry the program toward a new generation of World Cup challenges.

Despite a grueling CONCACAF qualification campaign that came down to the final match, there are high hopes for the U.S. return to soccer’s biggest event.
