The USMNT arrive unbeaten, though they survived a serious scare in the quarterfinals—outlasting Costa Rica in a penalty shootout after a 2‑2 draw over 90 minutes. Pochettino’s group stage dominance has been tempered by that narrow escape, but the Americans still boast the deepest roster left in the field.
Guatemala, meanwhile, continue to ride a wave of momentum after knocking out Canada on spot‑kicks in their own quarterfinal thriller (1‑1 after regulation). Tena’s players have leaned on an organized back line and opportunistic finishing to reach their first Gold Cup semifinal since 1996, and they now eye an upset that would stun the region.
