U.S. MNT DUELS TO 1-1 DRAW AGAINST PANAMA

The U.S. MNT opened the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup with a 1-1 draw against long-time tournament nemesis Panama. Numerous first-half opportunities went begging before Dom Dwyer one-timed the go-ahead goal home in the 50^th minute. Galvanized by the deficit, Panama made sure the U.S. lead didn’t last long, peppering the U.S. goal before finally finding the equalizer when Miguel Camargo pounced on a rebound in the area. Goalkeeper Brad Guzan was fantastic for the U.S. in the contest, making seven saves to earn Budweiser Man of the Match honors.

That result, combined with Martinique’s 2-0 win against Nicaragua, sets the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup Group B table as below heading into Wednesday night’s games:

2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup Group B Standings
Team	GP	W	L	D	Pts.	GF	GA	GD
Martinique	1	1	0	0	3	2	0	+2
USA	1	0	0	1	1	1	1	0
Panama	1	0	0	1	1	1	1	0
Nicaragua	1	0	1	0	0	0	2	-2

DOM DWYER JOINS RARE COMPANY

With his strike against Panama, forward Dom Dwyer joined some rare company. Having tallied 19 minutes into his international debut on July 1 vs. Ghana, Dwyer’s opening goal against Los Canaleros made him just the 10^th player in MNT history to score in each of his first two appearances.

Against Martinique, Dwyer sets his sights on scoring in a third-straight game, a feat achieved by just two previous U.S. players: Alexander Rae (1937) and Eddie Johnson (2004-05). Rae tallied in three straight friendly defeats to Mexico that year, while Johnson bested the record, scoring six goals across his first four MNT appearances, all of which came in World Cup Qualifying.

ABOUT MARTINIQUE

Part of the Windward Islands in the southern Caribbean, Martinique has a population of just over 385,000 and is considered an overseas department of France. Though not connected to the contiguous United States, think of how Alaska and Hawaii are fully functioning states in the Union. Inhabitants of Martinique are considered French citizens and have full rights within France, as such there isn’t a local currency in Martinique – they use the Euro. Politically, just as Alaska and Hawaii elect members to the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate, similarly Martinique is represented by four members in the French National Assembly and two in their own Senate.

Because the island is considered part of France, Martinique and other French overseas departments such as French Guiana and Guadeloupe are not members of FIFA and thus not eligible to participate in qualifying for the World Cup or other events held by the world’s governing body.

Martinique and its fellow French departments are however associate members of CONCACAF, allowing them to take part in regional events such as the CFU Caribbean Cup which serves as qualification for the CONCACAF Gold Cup.

A BRIEF HISTORY WITH THE ISLAND

Wednesday’s clash will be the second meeting between the USA and Martinique. The two sides first faced off during the Group Stage of the 2003 CONCACAF Gold Cup, where two first-half goals from Brian McBride in the span of four minutes lifted the MNT to a 2-0 victory at Gillette Stadium in Foxbrough, Mass.

A FAMILIAR FACE

While Martinique is led by head coach Louis Marianne, the team also has a connection familiar to U.S. fans. In January, the Ligue de Football de la Martinique, which oversees the national side, named former U.S. international David Regis as the team’s General Manager through the end of July.                                        

Born in La Trinité, Martinique, Regis carved out a fine club career in Germany and France and gained U.S. citizenship in 1998 before being named to that year’s MNT World Cup squad. Regis was also part of Bruce Arena’s U.S. side that ran to the 2002 World Cup Quarterfinals and made 27 overall appearances over five years with the National Team.

A PROVING GROUND

U.S. MNT players have long used the confederation championship as an extended audition for a place at the FIFA World Cup. Dating back to 1993, 18 players with 10 or less caps have made the jump from the most recent Gold Cup roster onto a FIFA World Cup roster (see table below). Most recently, current MNT center back Matt Besler utilized the USA’s run to the 2013 championship to make his way onto the 2014 roster in Brazil.

U.S. MNT Players From Gold Cup to World Cup
1993 Gold Cup/1994 World Cup	Brad Friedel, Cle Kooiman, Roy Wegerle
1998 Gold Cup/1998 World Cup	Frankie Hejduk, Juergen Sommer
2002 Gold Cup/2002 World Cup	DaMarcus Beasley, Landon Donovan, Pablo Mastroeni
2005 Gold Cup/2006 World Cup	Jimmy Conrad, Clint Dempsey, Marcus Hahnemann, Oguchi Onyewu
2009 Gold Cup/2010 World Cup	Clarence Goodson, Stuart Holden
2013 Gold Cup/2014 World Cup	Matt Besler, Mix Diskerud, Nick Rimando, Chris Wondolowski

ROSTER CHANGE

Having made his U.S. MNT debut as a substitute in the 2-1 win against Ghana, midfielder Kenny Saief departed camp on July 5 due to a groin injury. The Belgian-based winger was replaced on the roster by Philadelphia Union midfielder Chris Pontius. The M.L.S. veteran made his international debut earlier this year against Serbia and has racked up six assists in 18 matches for the Union this season.

WHAT IS THE CONCACAF GOLD CUP?

Held every two years, the Gold Cup is the regional championship for CONCACAF, the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football. Along with lifting a trophy and earning supremacy in the confederation, the winner of the Gold Cup earns a place in the CONCACAF Cup, a one-game playoff that determines the region’s representative at the 2021 FIFA Confederations Cup. Should the same team win both in 2017 and 2019, they will automatically earn a bid to the tournament.

Placed in Group B, the U.S. opens the tournament against Panama on July 8 in Nashville, takes on Martinique on July 12 in Tampa and concludes the Group Stage with its first-ever meeting against Nicaragua on July 15 in Cleveland. The top two teams in each of the three groups automatically advance to the Quarterfinals and will be joined there by the two best third-place finishers.

USA HISTORY IN THE GOLD CUP

The United States has won five editions of the tournament, beginning with the inaugural 1991 Gold Cup when the team defeated Mexico 2-0 in the Semifinal before downing Honduras on penalty kicks in the Championship. Current U.S. MNT head coach Bruce Arena is one of two managers to win the tournament twice, lead the side to its second and third titles in 2002 and 2005 respectively and the team followed those up with wins in 2007 and 2013. In 13 editions of the tournament, the U.S. has played in the Final nine times and has advanced to the Semifinal on 12 occasions.

EXPERIENCE AT THE CORE …

The group-phase roster boasts a dozen players with experience in World Cup Qualifying and 11 who have played in a Gold Cup, including six with a Gold Cup medal in their trophy case and 2015 Golden Glove winner Brad Guzan.

EUROPEAN VACATION

The regular European-based contingent for the MNT is in the midst of a much-needed break between now and the World Cup next summer. Having completed their club seasons in May, the group went straight into camp for the World Cup Qualifiers in June. After a 14-day camp preparing for the rigors of altitude, the U.S. emerged with four points from two games including a huge draw away to Mexico. Now two weeks into holidays, they begin to return to preseason shortly with the hopes of earning regular playing time for the upcoming campaign.

USA ROSTER NOTES:

• The U.S. is in the midst of a nine-match unbeaten streak, going 4-0-5 since Bruce Arena returned as head coach.
• With his goal against Panama, Dom Dwyer became just the 10th U.S. MNT player all-time to score in each of his first two appearances.

• Five players on the U.S. roster were part of the 2014 FIFA World Cup team: Alejandro Bedoya, Matt Besler, Omar Gonzalez, Brad Guzan and Graham Zusi.
• A majority of the roster comes from Major League Soccer, with 17 players representing 11 clubs.
• Six players come from clubs outside of M.L.S., with four from Mexico and two from England.
• Twelve players from this group have been a part of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Qualifying campaign.

• Seattle Sounders FC midfielder Cristian Roldan is the only player on the Gold Cup roster looking for his U.S. debut.

• With just one cap, left back Justin Morrow returns to his first MNT camp since March 2013.

• Nine players are also alumni of the U.S. Soccer Development Academy: Acosta, Agudelo, Arriola, Corona, Hamid, Miazga, Morris, Rowe and Zardes.

U.S. MNT IN THE GOLD CUP

• Beginning with the inaugural title in 1991, the U.S. has lifted the Gold Cup on five occasions. Current MNT head coach Bruce Arena guided the side to the 2002 and 2005 championships, while the team also went on to win in 2007 and 2015.
• Arena is one of only two managers to win the Gold Cup twice. Bora Milutinovic led the U.S. to the 1991 title before managing Mexico to championship in 1996.
