Where to watch USMNT vs. Guatemala live stream, TV channel, start time for USA Gold Cup match

The Stars and Stripes are gearing up for a high-stakes clash against Guatemala in the CONCACAF Gold Cup semifinals this Wednesday at Energizer Park. The U.S. men's squad cruised through Group D without dropping a beat, bagging three wins on the trot over Trinidad and Tobago, Saudi Arabia, and Haiti. With just one goal conceded across those matches, the Americans brought a rock-solid backline and a full head of steam into the knockouts. Advertisement Their quarterfinal showdown with Costa Rica in Minneapolis turned into a nerve-shredder. After 120 minutes couldn't separate the sides in a 2-2 thriller, it all came down to spot-kicks. Matt Freese stood tall with three clutch saves, and Damion Downs iced the game with the winning penalty, booking the U.S. its 17th trip to the Gold Cup semifinals. As for Guatemala, they've been punching above their weight. After finishing second in Group C, trailing Panama but edging out Jamaica and Guadeloupe, they entered the quarters with something to prove. And prove it they did. In a barnburner against Canada, Los Chapines came from behind after Jonathan David's penalty put them down. Rubio Rubin nodded home the equalizer in the 69th minute, and a nail-biting shootout followed. Josée Morales coolly slotted the winner in the seventh round, sealing Guatemala's first semifinal berth since 1996 and sending the underdogs into dreamland.

USA vs. Guatemala starting lineups, team news Mauricio Pochettino kept confidence in goalkeeper Matt Freese after his glaring error against Haiti, and his penalty shootout heroics rewarded that faith. It's hard to imagine too many changes to the lineup the rest of the way, although the boss could consider a switch at left-back as Max Arfsten has been defensively porous. John Tolkin could get a chance. Johnny Cardoso picked up an ankle injury and missed the quarterfinal match, while Haji Wright's Gold Cup is over due to an Achilles injury. Advertisement The U.S. are without injured regulars Sergino Dest, Antonee Robinson, Ricardo Pepi, and Folarin Balogun for this tournament, while Weston McKennie, Tim Weah, and Gio Reyna are unavailable as they are participating in the Club World Cup. Christian Pulisic and Yunus Musah requested to have the summer off and are not with the side. Yellow card accumulation is wiped in the semifinals, meaning players can only be banned from the final if they are sent off in this game. USA predicted starting XI (4-3-3, right to left): Freese (GK) — Freeman, Richards, Ream, Arfsten — Berhalter, Adams, de la Torre — Tillman, Agyemang, Luna. Injured: Cardoso (ankle), Wright (Achilles), Pepi (knee), Steffen (knee), Dest (fitness/knee), A. Robinson (knee), Balogun (ankle). Advertisement Suspended: None. The Guatemala attack is led by former USA international Rubio Rubin who switched to represent Guatemala in 2022 after none of his seven USMNT senior appearances cap-tied him to his country of birth. They have two players who feature prominently at MLS clubs. Goalkeeper Nicolas Hagen backs up American starter Patrick Schulte at the Columbus Crew while right-back Aaron Herrera plays for D.C. United. Head coach Luis Fernando Tena decided not to call in veterans Alejandro Galindo or Carlos Mejia, both of whom have over 50 international caps but are now 33 years old. Advertisement Guatemala starting XI (5-3-2, right to left): Navarro (GK) — Herrera, Pinto, Samayoa, Morales — Robles, Rosales, Munoz — Escobar, Rubin, Santis. Injured: None. Suspended: None.

Where to watch Mexico vs. Honduras live stream, TV channel, start time for Gold Cup match

The stage is set for a sizzling semifinal showdown on Wednesday night as Mexico squares off with Honduras at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. Fresh off a group-topping run in Group A, the defending champions are eyeing yet another trip to the continental final. Javier Aguirre's men kicked off their title defense with a gritty 3-2 victory over the Dominican Republic, followed by a comfortable 2-0 win against Suriname, and wrapped up the group stage with a scoreless draw versus Costa Rica. Advertisement A 3-1 quarterfinal triumph over Saudi Arabia now has El Tri knocking on the door of their fourth straight Gold Cup final Honduras, though entering as clear underdogs, won't be backing down without a fight. In recent clashes with Mexico across the Nations League, both nations have split the spoils with two home wins each. Reinaldo Rueda's squad looked down and out after a 6-0 hammering at the hands of Canada, but they've turned the tide since—bagging a 2-0 win over El Salvador and edging past Curaçao 2-1 to punch their ticket to the semis. Here's everything you need to know about Mexico vs. Honduras, including TV channel and streaming options for their Gold Cup clash.

Mexico vs. Honduraslineups, team news After sitting out the quarterfinal due to suspension, Mexico's in-form center-back César Montes is cleared for takeoff once again—and he'll be eyeing a fourth goal to add to his already impressive Gold Cup haul. Advertisement The news isn't all sunshine for El Tri, though. Midfield maestro Luis Chávez suffered a devastating ACL tear right before the knockout rounds and has been sidelined for the rest of the tournament. With Hirving Lozano and Henry Martín also out of commission, the squad's injury list is starting to pile up. Montes' return allows Edson Álvarez to push up into his preferred midfield role, where he's expected to partner Marcel Ruiz and Erik Lira in the heart of the park. Up front, Fulham's Raul Jiménez will once again carry the torch in attack, leading the line as Mexico look to march into another final. Mexico predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Malagon (GK) — Sanchez, Montes, Vasquez, Gallardo — Lira, Alvarez, Ruiz — Alvarado, Jimenez, Vega. Injured: Luis Chávez, Hirving Lozano, Henry Martín. Suspended: None. Advertisement Since Honduras was handed a six-goal drubbing in their tournament opener, coach Reinaldo Rueda has leaned on Jorge Benguché over longtime skipper Anthony Lozano to lead the line up top. Lozano, who plies his trade with Santos Laguna in Liga MX, will be chomping at the bit to reclaim his starting role—especially against a familiar foe like Mexico. A chance to silence the doubters and hit the scoresheet could be just the spark he needs. Meanwhile, Celtic winger Luis Palma has been something of a fringe figure in the tournament, mostly coming off the bench. Still, he's no stranger to making headlines against El Tri, having bagged a brace in Honduras' Nations League triumph over Mexico last November. Honduras predicted XI (4-2-3-1 right to left): Menjivar (GK) — Crisanto, Maldonado, Martinez, Rosales — Arriaga, Flores — Rodriguez, Alvarez, Quioto — Benguche. Advertisement Injured: None.

Clayton Kershaw's first strikeout victim still in awe as Dodgers ace hits 3,000 Ks

There was actually laughter in the St. Louis Cardinals clubhouse that morning at Dodger Stadium before facing the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Cardinals didn't have any tape of the 20-year-old kid who was going to make his major-league debut that afternoon, May 25, 2008. No one had any scouting reports. No one faced him in the minors. So, they began asking each other if anyone knew anything about the Dodgers' prized prospect. 'Someone said they heard that he could be the next Rick Ankiel," Schumaker tells USA TODAY Sports. 'No way. There is no way his stuff could be as good as Rick Ankiel's before he became a position player. So we are laughing that someone thought he could have a curveball as good as Ankiel's." Schumaker was leading off for the Cardinals and stepped to the plate with a game plan. 'I figured I was going to ambush him and welcome him to the big leagues," Schumaker says. 'The first pitch was an elevated fastball. It was harder and faster than I thought, and I swung and missed. Then he threw a curveball. It was something different. It was like nothing I had ever seen before. 'And then, well, I struck out." Now, 17 years and one month later – 6,247 days to be exact – that strikeout is immortalized in baseball history. It was Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw's first career strikeout, making Schumaker his first victim. Kershaw since has produced 2,996 more strikeouts in his future Hall of Fame career, and with three more strikeouts on Wednesday night against the Chicago White Sox at Dodger Stadium, he can become only the 20th pitcher in baseball history to strike out 3,000 in his career. Kershaw, 37, the 10-time All-Star, three-time Cy Young winner, two-time World Series champion and MVP, will be only the fourth left-hander in baseball history to achieve 3,000 strikeouts, joining Hall of Famers Steve Carlton, Randy Johnson and CC Sabathia. Most important to Kershaw, he'll be only the third to produce 3,000 strikeouts wearing just one uniform, accomplished only by Walter Johnson and Bob Gibson. 'Clayton Kershaw," Schumaker says, 'is the most dominant pitcher I've ever played against in my career. I've never seen anybody like him. 'If anybody deserves a statue outside Dodger Stadium it's Clayton Kershaw. How cool is it for him to have just one uniform, especially in LA, and then have a statue of him in front of that stadium? 'It's unbelievable what he's meant to that organization, and really, what he's meant for baseball." Schumaker, a career .278 hitter who hit .300 or better three consecutive seasons and never struck out more than 69 times in a season, faced Kershaw six more times in his career, including twice more that afternoon. He finished 0-for-7 off Kershaw. And struck out six times. 'The only time I even made contact off him," Schumaker says, 'I grounded into a double play. How's that?" So, does Kershaw ever bring up to Schumaker that he was his first strikeout victim? 'Oh, only every time I see him," laughs Schumaker, now a senior advisor with the Texas Rangers. 'He remembers. And how could I ever forget? 'You don't know at the time, it being his first start, but he just has that special unique look, and with the combination of his stuff, it's just so different. I knew he had a chance to be special, but I didn't know it was going to be 3,000 strikeouts, three Cy Young awards and 16 years in the big leagues special." Schumaker, who was traded to the Dodgers before the 2013 season, fully grasped Kershaw's greatness in their first game together on Opening Day against the San Francisco Giants. Kershaw threw a four-hit, complete-game shutout. 'I remember just looking at each other on the bench," Schumaker says, 'What the hell are we watching here? What is this?' He's this dominant on Opening Day? What's the rest of the season going to look like?" Kershaw went 16-9 with a 1.83 ERA that season, pitching a career-high 236 innings with an NL-best 232 strikeouts, winning his second Cy Young award. 'Just to see him work, and know what kind of person he is," Schumaker says, 'that's what makes this so special. He's the ultimate teammate. He's the ultimate competitor. And he's the ultimate person." Kershaw, who won the Roberto Clemente Award for his charitable work in 2012, is revered throughout baseball for his generosity, autographing baseballs, jerseys, or whatever is needed for charities, schools and programs. When Schumaker was trying to help a group of kids from being discouraged during the 2020 COVID summer that cancelled their travel ball season, Kershaw spent an hour on a Zoom call with Schumaker and 15 kids. 'It was one of the most special moments that these kids will always treasure," Schumaker says. 'That's why he's so easy to root for. I can't wait to watch him get his 3,000th." Kershaw will be the first pitcher to achieve 3,000 strikeouts since Max Scherzer in 2021. The next closest to 3,000 strikeout is 36-year-old Chris Sale with 2,528 strikeouts. 'I think it's cool man," says San Francisco Giants 42-year-old starter Justin Verlander, the three-time Cy Young winner, who leads all active pitchers with 3,471 strikeouts and 262 victories. 'I think the game should celebrate stuff like that and people lile him because it's clearly going away. There are very few of us left. So any time you get a moment to celebrate something like that, you don't know if you'll ever see it again. 'I'm looking forward to seeing it, and I'll surely reach out and congratulate him." Schumaker, who competed against Kershaw for eight seasons during his career, played with him during the 2013 season, and even managed against him for two seasons while with the Miami Marlins, isn't about to miss Kershaw's start either. He plans on plopping down on his couch Wednesday night at home with his 17-year-old son, Brody, who has Kershaw's autographed jersey hanging in his room, watching history. 'It's just crazy to see him keep doing this," Schumaker says. 'You didn't know if he would even come back after a couple of surgeries. He comes back, and even though he's throwing 89-91 [mph] now instead of 97, he's still beating guys inside with his fastball, and pitches with so much intent and conviction." Kershaw, who didn't start pitching this season for the Dodgers until May 17 after undergoing knee and toe surgeries during the off-season, is 4-0 with a 3.03 ERA, striking out 29 batters in 38 ⅔ innings. Who knows how much longer he'll pitch, or how long his body holds out – but the way he's going, why stop now? 'It's cool to have moments like these that shake you up a little bit," Verlander says. 'Getting to that number kind of puts things in perspective. But the great ones don't rest on their laurels. They keep working hard, put their nose to the grindstone, and want to keep being great. 'That's Kershaw." Follow Nightengale on X: @Bnightengale The USA TODAY app gets you to the heart of the news — fast.
