Why you should support the USMNT
There may be some growing pains as the Americans adapt to the new tactics of a new coaching staff, but they could also get a nice offensive jolt with the fresh start. The team’s top players are expected to take the field on Saturday, including star player Christian Pulisic, and they will face a Panama defense that scored five goals last time out. Pulisic leads the team with two goals in international friendlies this year Folarin Balogun leads the team with two assists and are players to keep a close eye on on Saturday.
The Americans have been kept off the scoresheet just once in their last nine games in all competitions and will have a home crowd behind them as they aim for the back of the net. See here which team you should choose.
Why you should support Panama
The Panamanians were very good at scoring goals in the build-up to their loss to Colombia. They found the back of the net at least once in five of their last six matches leading up to the Copa American quarter-finals. They have a chance to start that trend again against a USMNT side that has recorded just one clean sheet in their last seven games in all competitions.
Jose Fajardo led the team with two goals in the Copa America and will be a player to watch when these teams play against each other on Saturday. See here which team you should choose.
