The United States Men’s National Team opened the international window with a 3-1 defeat to Germany, but there is no rest for the weary with a familiar adversary on the horizon. While some rivalries are born out of propinquity, others are forged in the fires of combat and inflamed by repeated confrontation. With matches in three consecutive World Cups (2006-2014), Ghana falls into the latter group. The next entry into the inter-continental footballing struggle is set for Nashville’s GEODIS Park, a 30,000-seat venue with a Latitude 36 Bermudagrass surface.
This is the fifth all-time meeting between the two nations, with Ghana holding a 3-2-0 advantage but falling in the two previous meetings.
