Overall, the USA has amassed an unbeaten 8W-0L-2D record with a whopping 20 goals scored and only two against at Sporting KC’s home venue. Most recently, a scoreless draw against Uruguay on June 5, 2022 extended the USMNT’s home unbeaten streak to 25 matches that ended one shy of the team record of 26 set from 2013-2015.
RETURN OF THE KIWIS
Five-time champions of the Oceania Football Confederation, New Zealand returns to the United States for the first time since 2016. The teams have only met three times in history, dating back to the 1999 FIFA Confederations Cup where the U.S. won 2-1 in Guadalajara, Mexico. Most recently, the teams dueled to a 1-1 draw on Oct. 10, 2016 at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C. Overall, the USMNT holds an unbeaten 2W-0L-1D record.
ANOTHER QUEEN CITY
The USA returns to TQL Stadium in Cincinnati for its fourth visit to the home of FC Cincinnati since the venue opened in spring 2021. TQL played host to the latest Dos a Cero victory against Mexico in November 2021 during qualifying for the 2022 FIFA World Cup as well as a 3-0 friendly win against Morocco in June '22, the team that finished fourth in Qatar.
Overall, the USA is 2W-1L-1D in Cincinnati. The USMNT has a proud history in the Buckeye State, recording a 13W-3L-4D record.
BRING ON THE MAREA ROJA
Panama is one of the USMNT’s most frequent opponents in the region, the teams having met 27 times dating back to 1993. While the U.S. holds a 17W-3L-6D advantage across all competitions, it was the Marea Roja who captured the most recent spoils when they eliminated the United States in the semifinal of the 2023 Gold Cup in a penalty shootout.
UNBEATEN IN AUSTIN
Completing the trio of friendly confines for the fall is Q2 Stadium, a venue in which the USMNT has never lost nor conceded a goal. The city has hosted matches in three different official competitions, including the Gold Cup, the Nations League, and World Cup Qualifying. The USMNT holds a perfect 4W-0L-0D record at the home of Austin FC, with all four victories coming by shutout.
