MOTM For Clint Dempsey with that goal early in the second half. The United States will know travel to Kansas and Sporting Park in their last match against Panama on Monday night but not before Honduras take on Haiti to possibly settle the final standings in Group A. A better second half than first for the Yanks and surely something to be impressed off as they know have one foot in the door to the Gold Cup quarterfinal in Baltimore against a team to be determined. Well, for VAVEL USA, I hope you enjoyed the match. Live from Gillette Stadium, I'm Roberto Rojas, good night and see you soon.

Full time! The United States win with a 1-0 victory against Haiti following a nervy first half. However it was Clint Dempsey that ulimately scores the only goal and surely puts the USA in a good position to win the group with currently with six points following the 1-1 result against Panama-Honduras.

USA: Guzan; Yedlin, Alvardo, Brooks, Garza; Mix; Bedoya, Johnson; Bradley, Altidore, Jóhannsson.

Haiti: Placide, Alcenat, Jerome, Jaggy, Pierre, Guerrier, Goreux, Belfort Fils, Marcelin and Alexandre.

Here are the predicted lineups...

Finally, the last time these two teams met was in their final group match of the 2009 Gold Cup at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. With the USMNT already qualified for the quarterfinals, Haiti blew out to a 2-1 lead before Stuart Holden’s last minute goal salvaged a 2-2 draw to ensure the USA’s first place finish in the group.

This will also be Jozy Altidore's first game against Haiti and proves a special treat given his entire family is from the Caribbean nation.

Eight USMNT players made their Gold Cup debuts against Honduras on Tuesday: Brad Guzan, Timmy Chandler, Ventura Alvarado, John Brooks, Fabian Johnson, DeAndre Yedlin, Gyasi Zardes and Graham Zusi.

Here are some key facts going into this match...

He was also asked about the John Brooks/Ventura Alvarado partnership stating that ''They’re young. The only way you get experience is to play and they are two very young CBs we keep building.''

The German praised Haiti stating that ''We’ve made sure our players understand Haiti is a team full of quality, Panama got that lesson on Tuesday night. I do not expect them to be tired. They deserved the draw against Panama and we will not underestimate them.''

Jurgen spoke to the media yesterday with these quotes leading up to the match against Haiti tonight.

Haiti on the other hand are a side that shouldn't be underestimated at all. They had a brilliant performance against near World Cup debutants Panama before the U.S. match and caused many problems to their Central American neighbors, especially with their pace in a hard fought 1-1 draw. Substitute Duckens Nazon scored the equalizer in the 78th minute, and other players like Jean Alcenat, James Marcelin and Kervens Belfort created danger to La Marea Roja defense, which gives the theory if the United States defense can be able to stop them for 90 minutes.

Brad Evans came into the match to replace him 27 minutes from time and even in the short time he played, it's enough to guarantee himself a starting spot on Friday night. Ventura Alvarado is also in question regarding his first tournament apperance ever since gaining American citizenship, however Klinsmann should have confidence that he can have a better match against the Caribbean nation.

The United States will be looking to improve on all cylinders heading into this match, especially in the defense. Timothy Chandler didn't play well into expectations, having struggled defending as well with Honduras' Andy Najar in particular as maintaining possession for his team as the right back position goes into question.

As we finish all the first six group stage matches, we take a look back at the second match. A nerve-wracking but well deserved victory was enough to give the United States their first win in the Gold Cup with a 2-1 result against Honduras and now for qualification into the knockout stage with a victory against Haiti tonight in Beantown.

Good evening and welcome to VAVEL USA’s live coverage of the United States Men’s National Team. Our match tonight is the second for the United States as they look to defend their Gold Cup crown and clinch a berth into the 2017 Confederations Cup in Russia. They will be taking on Haiti from Gillette Stadium from Foxborough, Massachusetts. My name is Roberto Rojas and I will be live and your host for tonight’s match.
