Lovely move let down by a poor final ball.
2017 Gold Cup aka Copa Oro

What a great attack by Jamaica there. That's the kind of quick passing Jamaica need to employ and attempt more often in order to open up El Salvador.
I feel like El Salvador are being a bit overelaborate in their attacks. They have easily opened up Jamaica several times, but I sense a bit of arrogance from their front 4.
Once again, a decent spell of possession was ruined by a needless backheel pass by Oscar.
Oh, come on! We're playing our quarter final in Glendale! 
How does Marrufo not call a handball on that?!
How did the ref miss that handball? 
This game is over. Same time kick offs needed.
You know that won't happen, what with the CONCACAF being obsessed with the TV money.
This is a disgrace
Nicholson waited 10 minutes to come on only to walk back to the bench!Well, barring a crazy outcome, Canada will most likely face Jamaica in the quarter finals.
10 changes for Mexico. Can anybody else see Curacao causing an upset?
No chance. They 2-3 levels below Mexico. This will be a comfortable win for them.
Smart move. I don't see it happening, honestly, not when Curacao are so poor, defensively.So are jamaica to be fair.
I've resisted the temptation to back curacao at 22/1
If they win you owe me 2 grand
Trust me, you have nothing to worry about.If they win you owe me 2 grand
Mexico, so far, have been way too slow and stale in their attacks. There's a lack of movement, which is making it easy for Curacao to defend against them. It seems like Mexico are surprised by how determined and motivated Curacao are against them.
What's wrong with Mexico? They look way too surprised.
Ummmn you sure?
Form is temporary, class is permanent.Ummmn you sure?
All of these changes from Osorio has made Mexico too disjointed. They have no chemistry between each other, and as a result, they are struggling to open up Curacao.
That Leandro Bacuna free kick sums up Curacao's Gold Cup campaign: all of the hard work to set up a great chance only for them to ruin it.
Huh, no wonder Cuco Martina's not in the Curacao squad. Apparently, he's left the squad after the first match to sign for Everton.
That counterattack sums up Mexico's Gold Cup campaign so far: disjointedness and a team that's basically a sum of their parts.
One of the Curacao players hasn't taken the tag off his shirt...
See what I mean @Rolandofgilead? The team clearly better on paper got the lead even though Curacao have performed better.
The cross wasn't that great, but Sepulveda did a great job in getting to the far post and heading the ball in accurately from that tight angle.

That ball.....that header...
Curacao got out of jail with that free kick. That was a great opportunity for Mexico to get their 2nd goal.
Mexico have become more confident after scoring the first goal. They're playing at a quicker tempo, and they are dragging around Curacao's players to create more space. Instead of becoming rigid, they've started to overload the right side and create space for Sepulveda to cause havoc on the left.
How did Gutierrez fluff that? That was a great first touch, and he had lots of time and space. Somehow, he rushed that and ruined a great opportunity.
That lino is freaking me out. He's a fecking robot!
Huh? He seems normal to me.
He is like a weird machine.
Fair enough.
@limerickcitykid @RedDevilCanuck Zambrano's called up Cyle Larin to the Canada squad in place of Raheem Edwards.
Honestly, I'm okay with that given that Zambrano's never even used Edwards. We get a proper striker up front, and Edwards will now be available to play for TFC.
JESUS CORONA 
Almost leveled it up. Corona with a great save than hit post.
Barragan has been absolute trash today. He's looked lost playing up front. He's frequently been at the wrong place, his decision-making has been poor, and his movement has been stale and predictable. On top of that, his finishing hasn't been good either. I'm surprised that he's still on the pitch.
Elias Hernandez has done very well ever since he came on. He's been dangerous whenever he's cut inside, and his quickness on the ball's causing the Curacao left back lots of problems.
