First American soccer player signs with AC Milan.


Oguchi Onyewu, the first U.S.-born player to sign with the prestigious AC Milan, finally made it to practice. He'll get chance to prove he belongs at soccer's highest level today when AC Milan plays Mexico's Club America in an exhibition. "In sports, there's no guarantees," Onyewu said. "I'm certainly under the impression that I'll have to play for my spot." AC Milan organizing director Umberto Gandini hopes Onyewu will be the central piece in a slight rebuilding job. ... Thabiso Khumalo scored in the 82nd minute to send defending champion D.C. United to the U.S. Open Cup final by beating the Rochester Rhinos 2-1.
