SEATTLE (AP) " The U.S. Soccer Federation has appealed the red card given to midfielder Jermaine Jones and a yellow card assessed to forward Bobby Wood, who are both suspended for Tuesday's Copa America semifinal. Wood, already carrying a yellow card coming in, was given another in the 53rd minute. The USSF also said the restart took place at the spot of the red card, not of Woods' foul. Jones was given the red card Thursday night in a quarterfinal win by Colombia referee Wilmar Roldan during a 52nd-minute confrontation that also saw Ecuador winger Antonio Valencia sent off after a second yellow card for a harsh tackle on Alejandro Bedoya. U.S. players immediately rushed to the scrum after Valencia's tackle, and Jones raised an arm at Arroyo.
