Fortunately none of the injuries were serious enough to cause any of the players to miss the World Cup, but Jamaica clearly played a rough game. Maybe you didn't pay much attention, but they were putting in lots of late tackles. Read the full report to refresh your memory.
And luckily no one got hurt in the Carolina friendly. I don't know why the USSF decided to schedule it, when considering how the one went before the 2002 WC. Maybe they thought it was ok because the players would have two months to fully recover (game was played in early April), unlike in the pre-2002 one that took place only three weeks before the WC kickoff.
