Concacaf Gold Cup bracket, schedule: USMNT vs. Costa Rica in quarterfinals
The U.S. men's national soccer team has won all three of its Concacaf Gold Cup matches so far, but the knockout stage will present an entirely different challenge for Mauricio Pochettino's squad.
Will ghosts of recent tournaments past haunt the USMNT?
The U.S. crashed out of the 2024 Copa América in the group stage, then lost in the Concacaf Nations League semifinals to Panama. On Sunday, June 29, the USMNT faces Costa Rica in a Concacaf Gold Cup quarterfinal, looking to build some momentum heading into next year's World Cup.
The USMNT has reached eight of the last 10 Gold Cup finals. That is a realistic goal again this summer, even for a U.S. team missing many of its key players for various reasons, most notably Christian Pulisic.
Those absences have created an opportunity for others to step up. Attacking midfielder Malik Tillman now seems like a lock to make the USMNT World Cup team next year. Forward Patrick Agyemang is a matchup conundrum for opposing defenders. Defender Alex Freeman, son of former NFL wide receiver Antonio Freeman, might have played his way into the conversation, too.
When is the USMNT vs. Costa Rica Gold Cup quarterfinal?
Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. ET on Sunday, June 29.
Where will the USMNT vs. Costa Rica Gold Cup quarterfinal be played?
The USMNT vs, Costa Rica Concacaf Gold Cup quarterfinal will be played at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. U.S. Bank Stadium is the regular home of the NFL's Minnesota Vikings and hosted Super Bowl LII.
