USA Vs. Ukraine: Preview; Soccer Friendly To Go Ahead In Cyprus

After a change in venue and a late threat of cancellation, the United States will face Ukraine in an international friendly in Cyprus on Wednesday. International attention is currently focused squarely on the Eastern European nation, with Russian forces having taken control of the Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea in reaction to the toppling of former Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych. Russian President Vladimir Putin ruled out war on Tuesday, but reserved the right to use force as a last resort.
