Why the USMNT should be supported

While the Americans may appear to be shorthanded with many star players at camp with European clubs, the Americans have shown their depth and talent throughout the Gold Cup. Daryl Dike, the top scoring threat, has been suffering from a shoulder injury. However Gyasi Zardes, a veteran player has stepped in when necessary. Each have scored two goals in the five matches. Zardes won against Qatar and has scored 14 goals in his career for the USMNT. Mexico’s defense struggled with Canada’s pace, but the USA has many young attackers that it can rely upon.

Mexico: Why you should support it

El Tri has met the Americans six times in Gold Cup finals and has won five of them. Mexico’s record is 4-1-2 in seven of its last seven meetings. However, it lost 3-2 in its last matchup to the Americans — June’s Concacaf Nations League final. This is not the same United States team. All three of the Yanks’ goal-scorers are currently in training overseas. El Tri is now 6-2-0 since that defeat, and have not conceded a goal in seven consecutive games going into Thursday’s semifinal match against Canada.
