Taylor Twellman joins SVP to share his thoughts on the 1-1 draw between the United States and Panama.

PANAMA CITY, Panama -- United States manager Bruce Arena credited his side with earning "a good point on the road" in a 1-1 draw with Panama on Tuesday night.

The U.S took the lead through Clint Dempsey in the 39th minute after exceptional work on the right flank by Christian Pulisic. But Panama equalized just four minutes later with Gabriel Gomez firing home from a goalmouth scramble after the U.S. failed to deal with a long throw-in.
