USA vs Panama Preview
The United States and Panama will play for first place in Group D. Each side has already secured passage to the elimination stage, having swept Guyana’s Golden Jaguars and the Soca Warriors of Trinidad and Tobago, but the Americans hold a goal differential advantage should they draw.
Their last time out, the USMNT avenged the October 2017 defeat to Trinidad and Tobago that eliminated them from qualification for the 2018 World Cup, trouncing the Soca Warriors 6-0.
“For us, we advance to the next round,” USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter said, according to The Associated Press. “That’s important. Our focus was to prepare for this game knowing that if we’d be able to go to the next round. That was the focus of the group. Trinidad was in our way.”
Defender Aaron Long gave the United States the lead in the 41st minute, heading in a cross from midfielder Christian Pulisic. The game remained scoreless until the 66th minute, when Gyasi Zardes tallied to open the floodgates.
“Our coaches kept reiterating that Trinidad is gonna die down in the second half, just to be patient, throughout the game to be patient,” Zardes said, according to Pro Soccer USA. “Sure enough, the 65th minute came around and we started to see great opportunities.”
Long and Zardes scored two goals apiece. Pulisic added second assist and a goal of his own, and his defense earned praise from his head coach.
“This is the best defensive work [Pulisic] has done so far,” Berhalter said, per Pro Soccer USA. “Really good shape, good movement, and that was an emphasis before the game so it was good to see that being executed.”
The head coach added that he was unsure how he’d rotate the lineup for his side’s last match of group play.
“To be honest, I don’t have experience in that. This is the first time going through it, so we’re going to have to figure it out,” Berhalter said, per Pro Soccer USA. “We know the tournament is a lot of games in a short period of time, so there is going to have to be some balancing … but it will be an interesting problem that we’re going to have to solve.”
Panama bested Guyana 4-2 their last time out to advance to the elimination stage for an eighth consecutive Gold Cup.
Interim head coach Julio Dely Valdes said he’d put forth a competitive lineup against the Americans despite the clinched quarterfinals spot.
“We are comfortable with the starting XI that has formed … though if there are players that can bring us more energy, there will be new players,” Dely Valdes said, per Pro Soccer USA.
