USA boss Klinsmann determined to reverse Jamaica loss

USA national team manager Jurgen Klinsmann is looking to right the wrongs of his side's 2-1 World Cup qualifying loss to Jamaica on Friday.

The US host the Reggae Boyz in Columbus on Tuesday night and Klinsmann feels that his players need to produce less errors in order to regain top spot in their CONCACAF qualifying group.

"We are looking forward to the game tomorrow night because there is a sense within the group that we need to fix a couple of points," he said on Monday.

"We didn't get the result we wanted in Jamaica which puts us in a position that we have to get those points back and we want to desperately do that tomorrow night against Jamaica.

"Training has been good, very focused and sharp. I think we discussed enough of the things that didn't go so well in Jamaica and doing other things better than we did in Jamaica. I think we're all ready. We had a very nice crowd yesterday at the public training session cheering on the guys and giving them a good feeling.

"I think it's going to be a wonderful crowd and we want to show them that we'll take care of things tomorrow night."
