Heading into the second day of Group B play, the four teams sat deadlocked at one point apiece, as both of the first two matches finished in ties.

In order to advance to the quarterfinals of the 2013 Gold Cup, the United States needed to beat Cuba.

And once again, it was Chris Wondolowski who stole the show. Just three days...

The USMNT steamrolled CONCACAF midgets Guatemala, Belize and Cuba. We could rightly expect this of our national team, though history demonstrates that the Nats often play down to the level of their competition. Jurgen Klinsmann’s team will get a slightly sterner test when it faces World Cup qualifying foe Costa Rica in the final game of group play and move on to the second round of the Gold Cup. Even...
