USA have now lost their last two games consecutively, which acts as a dark cloud hanging over their Gold Cup campaign starting against Guyana in 10 days. Venezuela, though, will be full of confidence heading to the Copa America. They've comfortably beaten USA and begin their own tournament against Peru on Saturday.
Well this is not the way USA want to head into the Gold Cup! They lose 3-0 to Venezuela on home soil after a masterclass in how not to defend. Rondon gave the visitors the lead in the 16th minute with a simple finish after Herrera intercepted a poor pass from the keeper and Savarino made it 2-0 on the half hour mark, tucking away Rondon's shot that rebounded off the post following an American defensive lapse from a throw.
