Landon Donovan set a record with his 125th start for the United States, returning to the American lineup for the first time since September as coach Jurgen Klinsmann made five changes for Saturday night's exhibition against Scotland.
Donovan's 125 starts are one more than defender Jeff Agoos from 1988-03.
Central defender Geoff Cameron, midfielder Jermaine Jones and forwards Jose Torres and Terrence Boyd also were in the U.S. lineup, joining six holdovers from the 1-0 win at Italy on Feb. 29: goalkeeper Tim Howard, left back Fabian Johnson, central defender Carlos Bocanegra, right back Steve Cherundolo and midfielders Maurice Edu and Michael Bradley.
Klinsmann's bench had goalkeeper Brad Guzan; defenders Oguchi Onyewu and Edgar Castillo; midfielders Kyle Beckerman and Joe Corona; and forward Herculez Gomez.
Forward Clint Dempsey, sidelined by a groin injury, did not dress along with goalkeeper Nick Rimando and defenders Clarence Goodson and Michael Parkhurt, who arrived Thursday night following the end of their club seasons in Denmark. Forward Jozy Altidore, whose release was delayed by AZ Alkmaar, is not due to report until Monday.
Scotland Craig Levein made seven changes from the 1-1 tie with Slovenia on Feb. 29, inserting right back Phil Bardsley and central defender Andy Webster, midfielders Scott Brown and Barry Bannan and forwards Matt Phillips, Kenny Miller and Shaun Maloney - whose goal on April 11 gave Wigan a 1-0 upset win over Manchester United.
Bocanegra's Glasgow Rangers' teammate Allan McGregor started in goal. The lineup also includes left back Charlie Mulgrew, central defender Gary Caldwell and midfielder James McArthur.
Preparing for the start of qualifying for the 2014 World Cup, the U.S. plays Brazil on Wednesday at Landover, Md., and Canada next Saturday at Toronto. The Americans open qualifying on June 8 against Antigua and Barbuda at Tampa, Fla., then play at Guatemala on June 12.
Scotland is off after this until an Aug. 15 exhibition against Australia in Edinburgh, then opens qualifying at home against Serbia on Sept. 8.
