KEEPING IN LINE

Since 2006, Guzan has established himself as the second-choice goalkeeper for the United States national team behind Tim Howard. He made his World Cup qualifying debut in the second leg of a second-round qualifier against Barbados.

When Howard was suspended for a match at El Salvador, Guzan started and helped earn a critical 2–2 draw. He also started in the 3–0 win over Egypt in the 2009 Confederations Cup. In 2010, Guzan was named to the U.S. national team's provisional 30-man World Cup roster

from backup to starter

Since then, Guzan patiently remained a back-up until Howard was recovering from a back injury in 2013. He stepped-in and started in two World Cup qualifiers, he didn’t allow a goal during either match and picked-up a 1–0 win over Costa Rica and a historic 0–0 draw against Mexico.

Guzan was also capped for the U.S. during the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup, as Howard decided to take a break from international soccer following the 2014 World Cup. Both Guzan and Howard were capped for the Copa América Centenario, but Guzan was chosen as the starting keeper.
