Children’s Mercy Park will host the CONCACAF Gold Cup for the first time since 2015, but it’ll be a familiar opponent that will be on the field to face the US Men’s National team that night, as CONCACAF announced the draw for this year’s competition. The US in Group D will be taking on 2018 World Cup qualifiers, Panama on June 26th at Children’s Mercy Park. Back in 2015 the two teams played to a 1-1 draw in Kansas City during the Gold Cup with a second half goal by Michael Bradley canceling out a first half goal by Blas Perez.
The United States’ men’s national team and the Gold Cup returns to Kansas City this summer.
