Subject: Re: I think it's certainly second only to the World Cup

Message:

Not to nitpick but Adu couldn't have played in the '05 U17 WC even
though he was age eligible because you are only allowed to play in 1
U17 WC; unlike the U20 WC.

I agree that the Olympics are 2nd as far as the world is concerned
(not necessarily Europe).

Current Thread:

You have to take a U-23 team but are allowed 3 overage players. -- SokurHoo83 Thu Aug 7 2008 2:36:30 PM
