Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Scotland manager Craig Levein has every faith in his players to return home with a positive result against the United States - despite being without 11 players for the match.
Injury, illness and family reasons have all contributed to Levein making the trip to Florida without almost a dozen players who could have been in contention for the friendly.
"I look at the group that we've got here and I feel that we are quite strong," Levein said. "I don't think we have been in this position for a while. This will be a tough match. They are well above us in the rankings, they are an experienced team and they've got all their best players here."
