Rubio Rubin, an 18-year-old forward with Utretcht in the Netherlands, was in the starting lineup and set to make his U.S. national team debut in Friday night's exhibition game against third-ranked Colombia.
American coach Jurgen Klinsmann changed six starters from last month's 1-1 tie against Honduras, keeping only central defender Jermaine Jones, left back Greg Garza, midfielders Alejandro Bedoya and Mix Diskerud, and forward Jozy Altidore.
They were joined in the 4-1-3-2 formation by goalkeeper Brad Guzan, right back DeAndre Yedlin, central defender John Brooks and defensive midfielder Kyle Beckerman.
