The United States Men's National Team opened its Copa America Centenario campaign with a 2-0 defeat to Colombia on Friday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Sporting Kansas City winger Graham Zusi entered the match in the 86th minute, making his 36th international appearance, while his club teammate Matt Besler was an unused substitute for head coach Jurgen Klinsmann's side.
Colombia drew first blood after just eight minutes when Christian Zapata lost his marker and volleyed Edwin Cardona's corner kick past Brad Guzan for his first international goal. James Rodriguez doubled Los Cafeteros' lead in the 42nd minute, burying a penalty kick after DeAndre Yedlin was whistled for a handball inside the box.
