00:00All righty let's talk about the US men's national team against Jamaica this will
00:07be the first competitive matchup for the US national team under Mauricio
00:11Pochettino facing a very tough Jamaican side with a new coach the US is coming
00:16off a 2-0 win over Panama but they recently fell to Mexico 2-0 so
00:22Marcelino what's in the outlook in this game for you? Francisco this is a big
00:26test for Pochettino the US holds a recent record of two wins two losses and
00:29a draw in their last five matches showing some inconsistency but also
00:33resilience in terms of form Christian Pulisic and Ricardo Pepe have been
00:37standouts on their teams Pulisic with his creativity and Pepe adding goals
00:41when it matters. Injury wise though Team Wea is out with a suspension which
00:46affects their width in the right. Jamaica meanwhile has been solid this year led
00:50by Anthony and Leon Bailey the record shows that these are tough competitions
00:55so I'm gonna say that it's gonna be a draw in the first game and then a win
00:59in the US coming back all right yes okay well how about Mexico Javier Aguirre
01:05now in charge their record is not necessarily impressive they got two wins
01:09one draw two losses they've got that win against the US which I think was
01:14really important for them they got their 3-2 loss to Brazil so what's at stake
01:18here? Mexican team has been nothing but inconsistent they have shown improvement
01:24Luis Chavez is an important player that we need to look out for his playmaking
01:27abilities are gonna make the whole difference going to Honduras is a very
01:31hard game. Malagón is I hope that he's gonna start on goal I think he's the
01:36right goalkeeper for Mexico although Ochoa brings that experience in games
01:40like these that are critical because some of these players might for the
01:43first time experience what it is to play in Central America. Honduras is
01:47unpredictable they are very tough in San Pedro Sula the first leg is crucial I
01:51think that Mexico is gonna edge just as lightly with a two goal difference in
01:55the global but I think that Mexico is gonna make it through
