Jamaica looks to get their CONCACAF Gold Cup trek started on the right foot on Monday night when they go up against Guatemala. The Gold Cup has been a staple of the continental football landscape since 1991. While the U.S., Canada and Mexico have dominated the tournament, it has given smaller countries the opportunity to play at a high level.

Oscar Santis scores in the 32nd minute and Guatemala, playing in front of a loud and supportive crowd, holds on for a 1-0 victory in Carson to move into a tie with Panama in Group C.

The biennial CONCACAF continental championship sees Mexico defend their Gold Cup title at the 2025 tournament in the United States.
