This time around, Mexico barely advanced past Honduras on penalties in the quarterfinal, while Panama impressively knocked off Costa Rica by a 6-1 aggregate scoreline in their quarterfinal matchup.

Gimenez wins Gold Cup for Mexico with legendary individual goal

El Tri badly needed a win, and their best young player provided exactly what was required

Mexico badly needed a lift, and its brightest young star provided exactly what was required with an individual moment of brilliance to win the Gold Cup on Sunday night.

It’s been a difficult spell for El Tri, which was bounced from the World Cup group stage, humiliated by its closest rival in a continental semifinal and ousted two coaches within a span of less than a year.

The pressure was fully on Mexico for the Gold Cup, with the U.S. taking a roster that could somewhat charitably be described as a B-squad.

In fact, the oft-anticipated final between Mexico and the USMNT didn’t even materialize after B.J. Callaghan’s squad fell to Panama on penalties in the semifinal.

That set the stage for Mexico and Panama to face off in Sunday’s final at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, which was filled with green-clad fans hoping to see their side overcome the Central American underdogs.

But despite a number of Mexico chances, the match was scoreless through 88 minutes. El Tri had the better of play, with a goal waved off due to an offside call and several outstanding saves from Panama goalkeeper Orlando Mosquera.

But interim Mexico boss Jaime Lozano introduced Santiago Giménez as a substitute in the 85th minute. Three minutes later, the 22-year-old produced a moment Mexico fans will always remember.

Giménez held off Panama’s Harold Cummings near midfield, spun the defender around and then raced clear on goal. With only Mosquera to beat, he scuffed a shot into the far corner to send the stadium into raptures.

“It’s the biggest moment of my career,” Giménez said in quotes published by the AP. “I just tried to get down the field quickly. We followed our principles throughout the game, and they worked perfectly. The result was great, because there were a lot of competitive teams in this tournament.”

Panama stuns USMNT on penalties, ending dream of Gold Cup repeat

There will be no repeat for the USMNT, which could not win a second straight penalty shootout

]The U.S. men’s national team is out of the Gold Cup.

Just as it did in the quarterfinal against Canada, the USMNT fell behind in the semifinal against Panama in extra time, only to grab a dramatic equalizer and send the game into penalties. Unlike against Canada, however, the U.S. would fall to defeat in the ensuing shootout.

The result sees the U.S. miss out on the Gold Cup final for the first time since 2015, ending a three-tournament streak that included titles in 2017 and 2021.

The USMNT was often second best in the game’s first 90 minutes, which ended scoreless. An extra-time goal from Iván Anderson gave Panama a 1-0 lead, but Jesús Ferreira would reply just minutes later with a stunning equalizer on the volley — his seventh goal of the tournament.

But the USMNT would not have the same shootout fortune that it did in the quarterfinal, as Panama advanced to Sunday’s final after defeating the U.S. 5-4 on spot kicks at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego.

The defeat ends B.J. Callaghan’s tenure as interim head coach and ushers in the second Gregg Berhalter era, which will begin in earnest with a pair of September friendlies. After Callaghan guided the USMNT to victory in the Nations League last month, a squad made up of fringe national team players was unable to make it a perfect summer for the USA.

Cade Cowell hit post just 20 seconds into the game after a Panama giveaway, but that was as good as it got for the USMNT in the first half.

Panama began to assert itself as the half wore on, keeping the lion’s share of possession while continuing to trouble the U.S. back line with long diagonal balls over the top.

The U.S., perhaps fatigued after going 120 minutes three days earlier, increasingly looked to be on the ropes and was undoubtedly relieved to simply get to halftime with the game scoreless.

The USMNT came out improved in the second half, and both Brandon Vazquez and Ferreira had golden opportunities to give their team the lead that were ultimately spurned.

Just before the end of regulation, the USMNT dodged a major bullet when Panama appeared to have scored through Ismael Díaz, who was ruled offside after a video review. There was also a possible handball on Djordje Mihailovic prior to Díaz’s goal that was not given for a penalty.

The U.S. would not be so lucky just eight minutes into extra time.

Another ball over the top caught the USMNT’s high line out, and Anderson, who only came on as a substitute at the end of regulation, got a vital touch that beat an onrushing Matt Turner before calmly finishing into an empty net.

Incredibly, just as they did on Sunday, the U.S. found an equalizer after going behind in extra time.

Jordan Morris won a long ball and guided his header straight to Ferreira, who did the rest with an outstanding volley.

The game would finish 1-1 and go on to penalties, where Ferreira saw his opening spot kick saved by Orlando Mosquera. Turner would then save from Cristian Martínez to level the shootout, which would ultimately go to a sixth round.

Cristian Roldan saw his penalty saved and Adalberto Carrasquilla made no mistake with his chance to win the match, giving the Central American side the upset and a place in the Gold Cup final for the first time since 2013.

Panama tried to murder Lionel Messi at his own World Cup party

Argentina just wanted to party, Panama wanted to maim the guest of honor

Argentina played Panama on Thursday in what was nominally a friendly, but really just an excuse to celebrate their World Cup title on home soil.

But nobody told the Canaleros they were there for a party, which was evidenced when they tried to maim the guest of honor in the first half.

Just 15 minutes into the match at Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires, Lionel Messi was dribbling the ball 10 yards outside the box when Panama’s Jose Murillo went in for a challenge from behind.

Simultaneously, Panama defender Kevin Galván flew in with as reckless of a two-footer as you’ll ever see. 

Not that this challenge would ever be acceptable, but on this night, on this player? Read the room, Kevin!

Somehow, Messi escaped with just a bloody knee and Galván with only a yellow card.

Messi, as he usually does, would have the last laugh, scoring a picture-perfect free kick late in the game to mark his 800th career goal and cap off a 2-0 win.

The real scenes, though, took place before the game. Now this is how to celebrate a World Cup win.

CONCACAF W Championship 2022: Schedule, TV and streaming for USWNT World Cup and Olympic qualifying

World Cup and Olympic qualifying spots are on the line at the W Championship

The 2022 CONCACAF W Championship runs from July 4-18, with the U.S. women’s national team and seven other sides from the region will duke it out for a small pool of spots at the 2023 World Cup as well as the 2024 Olympics.

The W Championship will feature two groups of four, with all games taking place in Monterrey, Mexico. The United States headlines Group A, but along with Haiti and Jamaica, will face the daunting task of facing an improving Mexico team backed by a raucous home crowd. Over in Group B, Olympic gold medalists Canada share a group with Costa Rica, Panama, and Trinidad and Tobago.

The top two teams from both groups will qualify for the 2023 World Cup, but that will only be doing half the job.
