ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota became the 28th state to host the United States Men’s National Team on Tuesday night as the USMNT defeated Guyana 4-0 to begin their journey in the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Paul Arriola opened the scoring for the US in the first half, but it was his fellow winger, Tyler Boyd, who grabbed most of the attention.
After making the switch from the New Zealand national team to the United States, Boyd was called into the Gold Cup camp as a promising unknown. Tuesday was his second appearance, and he found the back of the net twice, also earning Man of the Match honors.
