2 goals of Diego Luna picked Guatemala in the Gold Cup final in the rear of Guatemala

Diego Luna scored twice in the first 15 minutes and the US Mains National Team won 2–1 over Guatemala on Wednesday, so that CIKOD proceeded in the final of the Gold Cup.

Luna defeated Olgar Escobar 2–1 in the 80th minute in the fourth and 15th minute.

American goalkeeper Matt Fraz made five savings, including a diving stop at the left post on Jose Morales in the second minute of the second-half stop time.

The US will play either Honduras or Mexico, who will play in Houston on Thursday on Thursday.

Luna, a 5 -Foot -8 Real Salt Lake Midfielder, scored his first American goal against Costa Rica on Sunday and led the team in 2025 in the goal contribution with seven (three goals, four aids).

At this time a year ago, he was noticed that he was not selected the American Olympic team for the Paris Games.

Now, he is a mainstay, for this repetition of at least one team that does not include most European-based players. Nevertheless, Luna is playing her way on the roster for the 2026 World Cup.

He opened the scoring with his quick response for a long -shot rebound by Luka de la Torre. Goalkeeper Kenderson Navarro trapped the ball directly near Luna, which brought down with his right leg before he gave a left leg strike.

Luna, after taking a pass from Malik Tilman, silenced Prof.-Gautemala with her laser from 22 yards away from a distance of 22 yards.

Desperate Guatemelines dominated the remaining half, excluded the US from 12–2 in the last 20 minutes.

Navarro was a story at the beginning of the second half as America was looking for the third goal. First, he crossed a header by Patrick Egimang in the 62nd minute, then Angamang was freed two minutes later, but the ball was not found behind the keeper.

It proved to be huge when the Escobar reached the top of the box and slipped a shot through many Americans.

It was the Gold Cup knockout round in the Gold Cup semi -finals since 1996 and the first meeting of nations in the first presence of Guatemala.
