It wasn't pretty, but the U.S. men's national team earned a point after coming back to tie Jamaica in the 2023 Concacaf Gold Cup group stage opener on Saturday.
The Stars and Stripes finished the game with 13 shots , with three big chances missed. Jamaica logged six shots, but the majority of the second half was all dominated by the U.S. The Reggae Boyz completed only 64% of its 288 pass attempts while the U.S. mustered 82% on 581 attempts.
Callaghan dropping veteran center back Aaron Long for 19-year-old Jalen Neal played a pivotal role in that positive change, with the backline sweeping and retaining the ball better. Cowell also provided a nice spark on the left flank instead of Jordan Morris, with Djordje Mihailovic also looking sharper in the attacking midfield role compared to Alan Sonora.
The U.S. will next play St. Kitts and Nevis on Wednesday, July 28 at 10 p.m. ET for the second game of the group stage.
