As much as I'd like to see Honduras and Costa Rica crash the party and become the 4th different nation to win the Gold Cup, it will be a tall feat to accomplish. USA 2-1 Honduras Mexico 2-0 Costa Rica
Like i said according to statistics, the United States and Mexico will meet in the 2009 Gold Cup final. The United States had no trouble to get rid of Honduras.(US second goal was offside!).This proves that Honduras was the best opponent for the United States. I'm sure that Canada would have further disturbed the United States.On the other side, Mexico has suffered for eliminating Costa Rica. Mexican have needed penalty kicks to go to the final. It's certain that a final USA-Mexico is better than Costa Rica - Honduras or Canada-Guadeloupe because the stadium must be completed for the final. Money, money,money! We need the Gold Cup's competition takes place in another country other than the United States! Because in these conditions, see a final like Costa Rica - Honduras or Canada - Guadeloupe, it will not be tomorrow!
Mexico all i gotta say is great comeback, should be a good game against USA. Still Mexico has to work on the defense, bad bad bad.
It seems that the USA team gets a lot of their goals from those free kicks. On the free kick they kick it to their players and one of them usually heads it or kicks it in for a goal. Also on corner kicks. They are dangerous on the free kicks and corner kicks.
mexico's depth is stronger and more talented than the us. i'll be cheering for the us but i see 2-0 to mex. no matter who wins, i hope both sides don't make this game out to be more than what it is.
In the Confederations Cup and Gold Cup, the US has scored 20 goals. 2 PKs, 1 header off a corner kick, and 17 goals from the run of play. My prediction: 1-0 American victory, goal off a header from a corner kick.
