Jordan Morris’s second goal of the game broke a tie in the 76th minute, and the United States edged tiny Martinique, 3-2, on Wednesday night in the Concacaf Gold Cup in Tampa, Fla., after wasting a two-goal lead against a team that is not even a member of FIFA.
Failing to score in the first half, the United States built a 2-0 lead on goals by Omar Gonzalez in the 53rd minute and Morris in the 64th.
But Martinique tied the score on goals by Kevin Parsemain, the first a long-range shot that went past goalkeeper Brad Guzan on a bounce and the second a pass that hit Parsemain and went in on the deflection.
