The United States men’s national team won 6-0 against Saint Kitts and Nevis on Wednesday, dominating the first half in St. Louis as they tried to get back on track after drawing with Jamaica in their first Gold Cup game. The United States Men’s National Team lived up to initial expectations, scoring four goals in the first half and three in the first 16 minutes. The United States of America scored early and frequently, led by a hat trick from Jesus Ferreira, to ensure that they could control Group A’s outcome.
The attract their most memorable match intends that if both the USMNT and Jamaica win out the gathering champ will be chosen by objective contrast. That implied the Americans expected to dominate the game, yet in addition run up the score following Jamaica’s 4-1 triumph over Trinidad and Tobago prior in the evening. Under B.J. Callaghan, the USMNT would not play up to expectations if they didn’t finish first in their group. However, that wouldn’t be a problem because Djordje Mihailovic scored in the 12th minute and the team was off and running after that.
Jalen Neal appeared to have always been a part of the USMNT defense, despite only being 19 years old, while James Sands had another good match setting the defensive tempo. A reaction was what the group required and it exactly was given however there were a couple of outstanding objectives too.
Bryan Reynolds celebrated his 22nd birthday by scoring an impressive goal following a corner kick, making his first USMNT appearance in an official FIFA competition since March’s Nations League match against Grenada. Reynolds was unfortunate to only score one goal, but he will take it because he played in crosses with pace and got into the box when there was space.
Even though Ferreira became the fifth player on the US Men’s National Team to score two hat tricks, he was unable to match his previous best score, which was four against Grenada. Mihailovic likewise scored two objectives and helped two more, showing his development since moving to AZ Alkmaar. On July 1, Trinidad and Tobago will travel to the United States, where they will look for more of the same.
