GROUP F: United States vs. Yugoslavia

SITE: Nantes

TIME: Noon TV: Chs. 7, 34 RADIO: KWKW (1330 Spanish)

* ABOUT THE U.S. With nothing to play for and the mood in camp decidedly black, the Americans will come out to get through the 90 minutes as quickly and as painlessly as possible. Look for some unusual lineup moves, with Brad Friedel starting in goal and Jeff Agoos getting in the game.

* ABOUT YUGOSLAVIA: It needs as big a victory a possible to edge Germany for first place in the group. “We shouldn’t underestimate the Americans,” Yugoslavia Coach Slobodan Santrac said. “Especially because they have nothing to lose in the game against us.”

* OUTLOOK: The United States’ worst loss in World Cup history is a 7-1 setback to Italy in 1934, but records are made to be broken.
