They are here before the finals of the Concacaf and the USMNT is one step away from the fourth consecutive final with the chance to win their first trophy under Mauricio Pochettino. But Panama’s passing on Thursday at Sophie Stadium is nothing but a formalism for USMNT. Recently, they met in a friendly in Austin in 2024 to win the USMNT 2-0, but in recent years they have played a lot of games against each other and Panama won the Copa America in the United States.
There are concerns about injuries Head players such as Anthony Robinson But when that’s by that Tyler Adams returns to squadgives USMNT an additional option to make changes in midfield.
While USMNT will enter the game with confidence, it is also the first camp for several players under Pochettino. In preparation for the 2026 World Cup, Pochettino will need to see as many players as possible to see if their strengths and weaknesses there are many things that can be achieved in the camp without players like Robinson. He helps Pochettino know how deep he can trust and where the Golden Cup window needs to work. The USMNT has recently taken control of the Concacaf, but one defeat at home to the local opposition in its last 30 games for the club was the same club.
Under Thomas Christenson, Panama calmly became the fourth best team in Concacaf and since 2020. With Adalberto Karaskula in midfield, this is a team that can control the speed in the midfield and bring steel alongside him, which is where the game will be or lose.
