Related Topics: Panama, United States of America

Right off the bat, two of the best teams in the cup will showcase their talent. The U.S., a favorite to win the tournament, has a strong roster made up of young and experienced players.

However, before head coach Bruce Arena and his team can even consider lifting the cup, they have to get through the group stage. Panama will be the first real challenge for the U.S. in the cup.

The Central American nation will be without a few veterans but should still have enough talent to give the U.S. trouble. It won’t be an easy game for the USMNT by any means.
