The U.S. men's national team put on a show Wednesday with a 6-0 rout of St. Kitts and Nevis in the 2023 Concacaf Gold Cup group stage.
The Stars and Stripes finished the game with 34 shots, 15 of which hit the target. St. Kitts and Nevis registered a shot in the second half to make it two in total, but it again failed to hit the target.This level of dominance was to be expected by the U.S. even though interim manager B.J. Callaghan doesn't have his A-team players available for the Gold Cup. St. Kitts and Nevis came into the tournament ranked 139th by FIFA, and the difference between the two was easily evident.
Ferreira and Mihailovic will draw the headlines and praise for their goal contributions on the night, but youngsters like Reynolds, along with center back Jalen Neal and midfielder Gianluca Busio deserve flowers for their performances. Neal, specifically, has made it two solid games in a row after coming on at halftime against Jamaica for Aaron Long and stymieing the dangerous Reggae Boyz in transition.
Next for the U.S. is the final group stage game against Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday, July 2 at 7 p.m. ET. The game will be played at the Bank of America Stadium, home of the Carolina Panthers. A win would likely secure first place in the group for the U.S. depending on goal difference disparities, while a draw would also be enough to advance. A loss would make it tricky depending on the outcome of the Jamaica-St. Kitts and Nevis fixture.
