The journey to a seventh CONCACAF Gold Cup begins for the United States Men’s National Team. Gregg Berhalter’s squad starts the tournament at Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kansas against Haiti, which registered a third-place finish in 2019. Three points is the desired result, but the opponent is not always so amenable to the idea.
This is the 19th all-time meeting between the two nations, sharing a 6-6-5 record. Haiti was forced to go through a preliminary tournament after finishing third in League A, Group D of the inaugural CONCACAF Nations League behind Costa Rica and Curaçao.
