USMNT dominate Trinidad and Tobago, advance to next stage of World Cup qualifying

Christian Pulisic and Sacha Kljestan put on another show in a second consecutive blowout USMNT victory.

The US national team's progression to the Hex was never really in doubt going into their match against Trinidad and Tobago in Jacksonville, Fla. Guatemala would have to overcome a massive goal differential in order for it to happen.

While Carlos Ruiz (FIVE goals) and Guatemala did their part, murdering poor St. Vincent and the Grenadines to the tune of 9-3, the US made no mistake in decimating Trinidad by a score of 4-0.

T&T — who were going through no matter what — kept it scoreless for a while, but by the 44th-minute, they couldn't help but relent to constant pressure from the likes of Christian Pulisic and Sacha Kljestan.
