Jozy Altidore scored in the first half and set up Clint Dempsey’s goal in the second as the United States opened its Gold Cup campaign with a 2-0 win over Canada on Tuesday.
The 21-year-old Altidore put the hosts ahead in the 15th minute and Dempsey scored in the 62nd from a good Altidore cross.
The U.S., which was coming off a 4-0 loss to World Cup champion Spain on Saturday, has never lost a group stage game at the Gold Cup.
“Coming off the game against Spain, obviously, you got down a little bit,” Altidore said. “Now, we’ve just got to build on it, because it’s only going to get harder from here.”
