The USA is set to clash with Panama on Thursday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, aiming to secure a spot in the knockout stage of Copa America 2024. The hosts kicked off their campaign with a solid 2-0 victory over Bolivia, while Panama stumbled with a 3-1 loss to Uruguay, conceding two late goals.
Panama’s coach, Thomas Christiansen, hasn’t experienced three consecutive losses since taking charge in 2020, but his team is now in a precarious position. A win is crucial for Panama to stay in the tournament, especially if Uruguay manages to defeat Bolivia.
Under Gregg Berhalter’s leadership, the USA dominated Bolivia with early goals and sturdy defense, marking Berhalter’s 44th win and surpassing Bob Bradley’s record. The USA boasts a strong home record against Panama, having lost only once in normal time.
Despite Panama’s recent success against the USA, including a penalty-shootout win in the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup semifinals, the Americans remain confident and motivated to extend their winning streak and advance in the tournament.
