FEATURE: USA defeats Jamaica to win 2017 Gold Cup at Levi's Stadium

After a heart-stopping 90 minutes in Santa Clara, the United States prevailed late to defeat Jamaica 2-1 in the 2017 Gold Cup Final at Levi's Stadium.

Jozy Altidore opened the scoring for the red, white and blue, converting on a precise free kick in front of the boisterous American Outlaws.

After Jamaica equalized at the back post in the 50th minute through MLS defender Je-Vaughn Watson, striker Jordan Morris struck back in dramatic fashion for the United States, blasting home the match's go-ahead in the 88th minute.

Wednesday's scintillating finish against the Reggae Boyz earned the United States their sixth Gold Cup trophy.
