Clint Dempsey Goal - USA vs Cuba 6-0 Gold Cup 2015 HD
Coincidentally I find this matchup to be a little funny because of US-Cuba relations before embargo comes to an end. But nevertheless, they will meet up in the Quarterfinals of the Gold Cup tonight. The US squad was not very impressive in its group stage showing against the likes of Panama, Honduras, and Haiti. They won the group, but it wasnt easy as Honduras came within a goal of tying the game, they could only score a goal against Haiti, and tied with Panama after they trailed in the first half. That doesnt matter now, but they need to show how good they really are in the Knockout stage. Losing Jozy Altidore did not help their attacking unit, but defensively they need to be sound. Cuba is a good team out of the Caribbean zone, but they are well below what the US is in regards of talent. The US should be able to pull out a win here, but they need to step up their game tonight just in case things get hairy.
