Theres a lot of points left on the board -- 24 to be exact.Ticos fans sounded air horns at the end of a match that reignited questioning of Klinsmanns tactics. The U.S. dropped to 0-9-1 in qualifiers at Costa Rica.Klinsmann is still confident hes the right person to lead the team, but understands the scrutiny.When you lose two games and obviously two World Cup qualifiers right after each other, there will be a lot of comments, he said.The Americans, who had had not lost a home qualifier in 15 years before last week, figure they will win their four remaining home games and pick up points on the road.The top three teams qualify for the 2018 tournament in Russia, and the No. 4 finisher advances to a playoff against Asias fifth-place nation.I said to the team that it wont be the last 4-nil defeat in their career, Klinsmann said.

Bolanos beat Brooks to the ball and sent a header across Guzan for his seventh goal in 30 international appearances.Bolanos scored after a turnover by 18-year-old midfielder Christian Pulisic near midfield. Salvatierra sent a pass down the flank to Venagas, and his cross found Bolanos in front, with Chandler a step late.Ronald Matarrita created the final two goals by Campbell. On the last goal, Campbell took the ball over Brooks right foot as the American defender stabbed to make a play to no avail. He was a step behind all night on the slick, chunked-up turf.There was some whistling during The Star-Spangled Banner from the capacity crowd of about 35,000 in Estadio Nacional, where the field is surrounded by an athletics track and crowd noise dissipates -- even from a band in the second deck.
