"We cannot hold the national championship so what kind of football can we talk of at all? If we do not have an opportunity to play on home soil, why shall we go to Cyprus in those troubled times for your country? We play for our people and country. Our team do not fly to Cyprus and stay at home," Konkov told the ICTV channel.

Or split the team up and have USA v USA. America wins either way, or draws.

I try to steer clear of being a Buzzkillington, but you know, I have a personal connection to the plight of Ukraine.

Ah, forgot about that.
I really hope USSF considered this and had back up options in place.

It's disappointing but in the context of what that country is facing completely understandable.
God speed to the Ukraine and its people.

I think the Soccer Board should volunteer to put a team together and scrimmage the USMNT in Cyprus as a replacement. Any takers?

Wonder what happens to the Ukrainian teams playing in Europe?
