The United States men's national team started very poorly against St. Vincent and the Grenadines, conceding a surprise goal. But they didn't take long to recover, with Bobby Wood pulling them level, and they were well in control by the half-hour mark. Fabian Johnson made it 2-1.
USMNT takes control after bad start with goals by Fabian Johnson, Jozy Altidore

And then, Jozy Altidore made it 3-1 shortly afterwards, off a corner by Johnson and a flick by Jermaine Jones.
The second goal was a bit unlucky for St. Vincent, but it seems like it was the one that demoralized them. The US quickly took control after that, and Altidore’s goal only took a couple of minutes. And after all this, it would be surprising if the USMNT didn’t score a few more.
