CONCACAF Nations League 2023-24: US Qualify For Copa America 2024 Despite 1-2 Defeat Against Trinidad - In Pics
Sergino Dest lost his composure in a needless dispute with the referee, getting a pair of yellow cards for dissent in a 30-second span that endangered the United States' berth in next year's Copa America. Trinidad won 2-1 in a CONCACAF Nations League 2023-24 match on Monday night in Port-of-Spain, overcoming a deficit by scoring twice after Dest's 39th-minute ejection left the U.S. a man short. The Americans held on to win the total-goals series 4-2 and earn spots in the 16-nation Copa America and the CONCACAF Nations League semifinals.
