USA Futsal Team to Attempt to Reach 2016 CONCACAF Championship

The USA Futsal team will take on Canada in a two-leg matchup down in San Jose, Costa Rica with hopes to qualify for the CONCACAF Championship. The US has qualified for all five of the previous CONCACAF championships and needs to advance to keep their hopes alive of advancing to the CONCACAF world cup for the first time since 2008. The team to advance will be the one scoring more goals on aggregate. Game one will be tonight with game two tomorrow night.

For those not in the know, futsal is a form of indoor soccer played 5-on-5 and is not the same as the more common indoor soccer played in the US.  Each game is made up of two 20-minute halves.
