US Soccer has released the 3 venues they will play in for the semifinals of World Cup Qualifying.  The semifinal stage has 2 groups of 4 and each team plays each other once at home and once away.  There will be games played in Chicago, Washington D.C. and Commerce City Colorado.  Chicago and Commerce city have never hosted World Cup qualifying before and the last time D.C. did was in 2004.  The last time the US played in Washington, they were able to dispatch Panama 6-0 with an Eddie Johnson hat trick.  The US needs to beat Barbados in a home and home series starting on June 15th in Carson California to advance to the semifinal stage.
