  Tim Howard

  Outside of Scotland's goal, which he couldn't have prevented, Howard had just about the quietest night imaginable: He punched out a single cross and caught one shot.

  Carlos Bocanegra

  The American captain stymied Kenny Miller, Scotland's dangerous target man, but made a hash of the offside trap on the Scots' only goal. Bocanegra's performance was seamless otherwise.

  Fabian Johnson

  The cross that resulted in Scotland's goal came from his side, but that was the only blemish on Johnson's evening. American fans will surely focus on the promise shown by the 24-year-old's marauding runs out of the back.

  Geoff Cameron

  The own goal was unfortunate and the passing touch not quite there. Cameron, however, showed that he can certainly hold his own in the heart of the US back-line.

  Steven Cherundolo

  The Scots failed to make any inroads on Dolo's flank as the right back snuffed out nearly every attacking movement that came his way. He also ventured forward occasionally without leaving his plot exposed.

  Jermaine Jones

  Who was this guy? Rather than collecting yellow cards, Jones exits Florida with a goal and two assists to his name.

  J. Torres

  Torres doesn't provide an aerial threat out wide, but he combined well and interchanged positions with his team-mates, and his pressure won the possession that led to Donovan's first goal.

  Michael Bradley

  Pirouetting past challenges and finding decisive final passes, Bradley starred against an overmatched Scottish midfield. And, of course, he walloped that unforgettable half-volley that defies description.

  Maurice Edu

  Facing off against many of his club-mates, Edu concentrated on the little things - playing simple passes, recovering possession, winning headers, etc. - and allowed Jones and Bradley to be the maestros of the night.

  Landon Donovan Top of the Match

  The 30-year-old's midweek quotes about his diminishing desire were apparently just the subtlest form of mind games. Donovan torched Scotland's back-line, rifling three chances into McGregor's net, linking with Jones in the build-up to Bradley's screamer, and planting a cross on Jones' head for the USA's fifth goal.

  Terrence Boyd

  The youngster validated his already strong case to be Jozy Altidore's understudy. Boyd, though, conceded possession at times, a problem that playing more often against high level competition should iron out.

Substitutions

  Bradley Guzan

  Considering the amount of action that came his way, Guzan could have manned his goal from the bench.

  E. Castillo

  The Tijuanan defender replaced Johnson at the back, holding down the left flank against a defeated Scotland side.

  Oguchi Onyewu

  Gooch still has a chance of reclaiming his centre-back spot, but tonight he didn't have much of an opportunity to prove his worth.

  Kyle Beckerman

  The dreadlocked midfielder didn't put in a foot wrong during his brief appearance.

  J. Corona

  Like his club-mate Castillo, Corona played on the left, bustling up the pitch and hopefully clearing the memory of the Olympic qualifying disaster from his mind.

  Hérculez Gómez

  The best of the substitutes, Gomez, instead of displaying his acute finishing touch, impressively combined with his fellow attackers in the build-up to goals.

  Allan McGregor

  McGregor saved Donovan's first shot, but couldn't deny his follow-up. From that point onwards, the Scotland keeper was practically inert for the rest of the USA's goals

  Andy Webster

  Webster battled Boyd, but was overrun as Americans flooded his box and effortlessly played around him.

  Charles Mulgrew Flop of the Match

  Mulgrew will most likely wake in a sweat over the next week, Donovan's widow's peak haunting him in his dreams. Donovan effortlessly turned Mulgrew for his first goal and left his marker flapping his arm at the assistant referee for most of the night.

  Gary Caldwell

  Like his centre-back partner, Caldwell did nothing to turn the tide of the match.

  Phil Bardsley

  A giveaway from Bardsley in the third minute led to the opening American goal and commenced the evening's onslaught.

  Barry Bannan

  Bannan lofted a few marvellous passes to his flanks, but Scotland's No. 10 never provided the buffer his defence needed and couldn't upset the USA's passing rhythm.

  Matt Phillips

  The winger spent the match defending, rarely having the opportunity to push forward and create chances.

  Scott Brown

  The rough-and-tumble Bhoy barked at the referee and his opponents, but meekly ceded the midfield to the hosts.

  James McArthur

  McArthur was anonymous, neither dictating possession nor disrupting the American attack.

  Kenny Miller

  Miller's touches came few and far between. His astute run and header across the box, albeit fortuitous, produced Scotland's only goal.

  Shaun Maloney

  The American defence gobbled up Maloney, preventing the diminutive midfielder from having any significant attacking impact on the evening.

  Russell Martin

  The Norwich City man struggled along with the rest after coming on for the last half four.

  Christophe Berra

  By being summoned as a substitute for the last 10 minutes at centre-back, Berra at least avoided the worst of proceedings.

  Steven Whittaker

  Made little difference to the rout, coming on after 60 minutes.

  Don Cowie

  An indifferent showing from the midfielder in his second-half substitute role.

  Craig Mackail-Smith

  No time to influence the result, called upon only after the damage was irreparable.
