Saint Kitts and Nevis and the USA will look to pick up their first wins of the 2023 Gold Cup as they lock horns at the CityPark Stadium on Wednesday.
Trinidad and Tobago made light work of Saint Kitts and Nevis in their Gold Cup opener on Sunday, beating them 3-0. Alvin Jones and Ajani Fortune found the back of the net for Trinidad and Tobago before Jameel Ible’s own-goal in the 73rd minute gave them a three-goal cushion.
Saint Kitts and Nevis are still novices in the footballing world but they’ve well and truly earned their right to be in the Gold Cup. However, they did seem like they were a bit out of their depth during the game on Sunday.
The 3-0 loss to Trinidad and Tobago represents their biggest loss since a 4-0 defeat to El Salvador over two years ago. It’s also worth noting that it was the first time that Saint Kitts and Nevis had failed to score at least once since Andorra kept a clean sheet against them in a friendly in March 2022.
Meanwhile, the USA are the team to beat in the Gold Cup this year after winning the CONCACAF Nations League. They beat Canada 2-0 in the Nations League final that took place on 18 June, thanks to goals from Chris Richards and Folarin Balogun.
But their Gold Cup campaign started on a rather underwhelming note as they settled for a 1-1 draw in their opening group stage game against Jamaica. The USA rarely take their best group of players for the Gold Cup but they’ll still be extremely confident about dispatching Saint Kitts and Nevis on Wednesday.
