The US national team is the first 2021 Gold Cupfinalist after defeating Qatar 1-0 in the semifinal. Gyasi Zardes was the goalscorer of the night thanks to his late goal, after entering in the second half replacing Daryl Dike. However, the figure of the night was goalkeeper Matt Turner, who kept his team alive with his many saves.
The US team knew from the start that this was going to be a tight match. Qatar has been one of the most effective teams in the cup so far. However, against the USA, Felix Sanchez’s side failed to score despite having the best chances, including a missed penalty from Hassan Al Heidos, thanks to an excellent performance from Matt Turner.
In the end, Qatar was going to pay dearly for that miss. In the 86th minute, Gyasi Zardes received the ball from Gioacchini, who entered the pitch just five minutes earlier, and sent it into the net. That goal was more than enough for the USA to reach the final of the Gold Gup for the second year straight. Here, check out the highlights and goals:
