Sept. 15 (1968)

Three St. Louisans are in the starting lineup as the U.S. National Team rallies from a 3-0 deficit to tie Israel, 3-3, in a friendly before 10,118 fans at Yankee Stadium in New York. The St. Louis Stars’ Eddie Clear and Carl Gentile, and St. Louisan Larry Hausmann of the Chicago Mustangs, take the field for the United States. Gentile and Hausmann play the entire match, as does the Stars’ Nick Krat. A knee injury prevents future U.S. Soccer Hall of Famer Pat McBride from playing. Another future U.S. Soccer Hall of Famer and future St. Louis Stars player, Willy Roy, puts the U.S. on the board in the 50th minute. Peter Millar strikes in the 79th and 84th minutes to level the score.
