Jamaica Loses 2-1 to USA in Gold Cup Final 2017

Heighlights

The U.S. men’s national team captured its sixth Gold Cup title with the Americans capturing the trophy on Jordan Morris’s 88th-minute winner, which delivered a 2-1 triumph over upstart Jamaica at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, Wednesday night.

Jozy Altidore opened the scoring with a sensational free kick just before halftime, but Je-Vaughn Watson equalized mere minutes into the second half, beating Morris to the spot on a free kick to volley home the equalizer.

Morris’s heroics secured the title, though, restoring the USA as CONCACAF champion for the first time since 2013.
