USMNT Goes 3-for-3, Tillman Delivers Again, Giménez’s Worldie Waved Off

Alexi Lalas’ State of the Union Podcast

The USMNT closes out the Gold Cup group stage with a 2-1 win over Haiti, securing all nine points and the top spot in Group D. Alexi Lalas, David Mosse, and special guest Maurice Edu break down the win — including Malik Tillman’s standout performance, Patrick Agyemang’s hard-earned game-winner, and key lineup decisions. The crew also discusses Matt Freese’s costly giveaway, whether Tillman is locking in a long-term role, and what to expect in the quarterfinal matchup vs. Costa Rica.
Plus, a full recap of the day’s Gold Cup action. Saudi Arabia and Trinidad & Tobago share points, Mexico and Costa Rica play to a scoreless draw, and Tuesday’s Group B & C showdowns decide the remaining quarterfinal spots. To wrap things up, Alexi reflects on the USMNT’s legendary 1994 World Cup win over Colombia—31 years ago today.
