USA needs a result to guarantee 4th place finish. USA can qualify today with a Win or a tie and a Costa Rica loss. Other scenarios include being even with Costa Rica but more than likely up on goal differential before going to Costa Rica.
Canada and Jamaica are on now, paramount plus channel has all the other CONCACAF matches, and are scoreless in the 9th minute in 24 degree weather.
USA will be without Weah and Yedlin, but have Reyna and Shaq Moore to cover for them. Look for Arriola to be Reyna's backup.

If the result with Costa Rica holds up, they will be even with the USA on points so we would need to win tonight in order to get that 3 point cushion again. Then we would have to not lose by 6 or 7 points in Costa Rica. So, tonight is a must win. We knew that going into this round of qualifiers. A tie would keep us up, and would secure at least a 4th place finish, which would mean a playoff with New Zealand. The stage is set. How will we respond? How would we be feeling if Pulisic or Pefok puts away those sitters on Thursday? Oh what could have been.

Coverage of the USA has started on FS1. Commentators are saying that a stomach bug has hit the USA roster and coaching staff. Not sure who has this sickness.

Panama playing a high pressure game. They are going for the win too. We cannot take our opponents lightly. They already beat us once at their place. We need to take them down tonight.

Arriola wins free kick at the top right corner outside the box. Moore was fouled before but of course doesn't whistle for it. Pulisic on free kick. Goes for it. Deflected off of wall. Corner. Ref wanted to call a goal kick. what's up with that? is up with this ref so far?

12th min, Pulisic takes corner, goes mid, Robinson heads down, Ferreira takes a low shot, another corner. Pulisic again takes it, right side, man goes down, no call, play on, counter stoped before usa tries to counter. back and forth play, finally play stops. VAR review? shows Zimmerman taken down. then a hand ball by Panama player with hands on z's neck. should be a penalty kick. Gadoy's arm touches ball. PENALTY KICK GIVEN!!
15th min

Panama is furious. Remeber that phantom goal that knocked us out. I do not feel sorry for them. They are trying to fight the USA before the kick. Ref needs to do something. Ferreira looks like he may take it. Hands it to Pulisic. GOAL USA!!
