Belize vs United States 08-07-2013 Concacaf Gold Cup

JELD-WEN Field, Portland, Oregon will be hosting on 10 July 2013 , a CONCACAF Gold Cup (Group C) match between Belize and United States. The match referee will be Hector Rodriguez from Honduras. 

Belize may take solace in the fact that two of the tournaments heavyweights have already experienced upsets in the last few days. Mexico notably lost against Panama 1-2, while Canada lost its opener against Martinique 0-1 in the tournament opener. Belize will face the USA for the first time in history, and comes into this tournament with the lowest FIFA ranking of any team in the region. They have drawn both of their friendlies in the run-up to this cup, however, and are expected to put up a bitter fight against the hosts.
Manager Juergen Klinsmann is, with no doubt, extremely happy with his late side's performances, which include a 5-match winning streak and most recently a 6-0 thrashing of Guatemala in an international friendly match. USA's all-time leading goalscorer Landon Donovan successfully returned to the national side, netting a brace and likely a starting spot against Belize.
