The U.S. looked to continue their momentum after defeating Jamaica 1-0 in Kingston during the first leg of the quarterfinals. The U.S was led by their star player, Christian Pulisic, who broke the deadlock in the 14th minute of the match with an assist coming from Juventus player, Weston McKinnie. The U.S did not let up and bagged another 2 goals shortly after. Going into halftime the U.S was up by an impressive 3 goal margin. The final score ended 4-2 and the USMNT move on to the semi-finals where they will face off against Panama in a 2-leg fixture. The Americans will look to keep up pace after an impressive couple of victories against a tough Jamaican squad.
