CARSON, Calif. (AP) Two newcomers and a resurgent veteran gave coach Bob Bradley a victory in his debut with the U.S. national team.

Landon Donovan ended a 1 1/2-year scoreless streak in international play, and Jonathan Bornstein and Kenny Cooper scored in their national team debuts to lead the Americans to a 3-1 victory over Denmark on Saturday in Bradley's first game as interim coach.

Dennis Sorenson put the Danes ahead in the 37th minute of the exhibition game, and Donovan tied it 7 minutes later with a penalty that went in off both hands of goalkeeper Jesper Christiansen.

The goal gave a spark to a U.S. team that had started stiff and sloppy.

"There were some nerves for sure," Bradley said. "In the first half, the coordination on the field was fine, but the plays weren't. We fouled up some simple plays, and needed to get some confidence in what we were doing."

It was the 26th goal in 85 international appearance for Donovan, who was scoreless in 18 straight national team games since connecting against Canada on July 9, 2005, and drew criticism for his play during last year's World Cup finals.

"I thought Landon had a really good game," Bradley said. "He worked very hard. I thought he got involved right away."

Bornstein, a 22-year-old who was Major League Soccer's Rookie of the Year last season while playing for Bradley at Chivas USA, scored the go-ahead goal from 8 yards in the 57th minute.
