Gold Cup today...USA 2017 Champions
Not that El Salvador has a future in this tournament, but there'll be others. Surely we can hope for some form of payback.

Meanwhile, roll on Costa Rica. Expect a hot, humid game with no meaningful breezes (is my guess). Since we can't hope for another snow storm in Dallas this weekend (Razz) here's hoping the weather's no harder on the guys than the Costa Ricans.

I imagine the roof will be closed so it'll be like 70 degrees in there.

RE: Besler - WTF was that? I'm not a fan of kicking a ball back to the goalie to begin with, but kicking it so wide of the goal that Howard couldn't grab it and the Costa Ricans get a corner kick? Off with his freakin' head!

(later)
Final: US wins, 2-0, and faces whoever wins tomorrow's game for the whole shootin' match.

Much better win.

Best we have looked all tournament so far.

Dempsey was the difference maker tonight.

Game was awesome! Dempsey was a real game changer and that goal he scored was a thing of beauty.

Dempsey's goal was beautiful.

Watch to the end for the different angles in slow motion.

Thanks. Bought them about two months ago with the hope The USMNT would be in the game. The gamble paid off big time. I saw them play in the group stage of the Gold Cup two years ago. The atmosphere last night was incredible way better than when they played at FC Dallas stadium.

The atmosphere at international matches is always incredible.

I went to all the world cup games at Stanford back in 94. Six games including USA v Brazil on July 4th.

I also caught USA Women's v France in the 2012 Olympics. England v Brazil and Japan v France at Wimbley stadium.

I'm glad you were at the game.

Whoa you've been to some awesome matches! Next time I'm in Europe I'd love to see a Bundesliga or premier league match. You going to the Gold Cup final? since it's at Levi's stadium.

I should. It's only 10 minutes from where I work.

I didn't realize it was at the 49ers stadium until today.

Some seriously sore fans from Mexico - wowza!

Here we go let's hope for an easy match today. US needs to come out up tempo and strike early.

Jamaica just lost thier starting goalie to what appears to be a broken finger. It looked painful. I say appears cause i am watching with no sound.

I saw some blood too, looked bad.

Made a hellova save, 2 actually doing it.
