Personal Analysis: The current strength of the US team's full main lineup is not bad at all. The lineup participating in the Gold Cup this time is not a full main lineup. Several core players in the entire front court are not on the roster. In the offensive end, there are no players with particularly strong abilities except Tillman. The ones who interact with him more on the field are left winger Luna and left back Afstein, which makes most of the team's offense concentrated on the left and center. Tillman in the front midfield position is the main ball holding attack point and the end point in front of the goal, but his personal ability is not top-notch. Adams and Richards in the midfield are Premier League players. They have relatively large defensive abilities and physical advantages, but in the cup game, they played a little bit without effort, and they did a general job in marking and blocking. Most of Guatemala's players play in the second and third level leagues in the Americas. It is somewhat unexpected that they can reach the semi-finals this time. The offensive end basically relies on Rubin and Santis on the front line. The team plays a defensive counterattack most of the time on the field. The ground penetration and passing control capabilities are relatively weak. Most of the attacks are organized by the two forwards through the medium and long passes from the backcourt. The cooperation between the two is quite good. One person advances on the side and passes, and the other shoots in front of the goal. Although the proportion of threatening attacks is not high, it can still produce some results. The team's back line is mainly densely positioned defense. It can only be said that it is barely qualified in terms of marking and blocking. The strength gap between the players themselves is still quite obvious. When facing the main forwards of the five major leagues, it can basically do single defense.

The current lineup of the US team is much stronger than that of Guatemala. Three of the four games in the last round of the quarter-finals were upsets. This has something to do with the low quality of the Gold Cup itself and the referee's penalty standards. In terms of the team's offensive ability, the US team is much stronger than Guatemala. As long as the Guatemalan forwards Rubin and Santis's chances of getting the ball are restricted, it will be difficult for the entire Guatemala team to launch a threatening attack. In this game, the US team's 1.5-goal handicap is normal, and the gap between the two teams in strength is still relatively large. However, from the current data, the organization's support for the US team's breakthrough is not high. Lao Li predicts that the possibility of stuck data in this game is relatively high, and the score is expected to be 2-0 or 3-1.
