[USA CONFIDENTIAL] Thanks to fortuitous scheduling, a possible “dream matchup” of the USA and Mexico in the Gold Cup knockout rounds is still on, but perhapsnot at the final stage as has been anticipated. Heading into its Group C finale against Guadeloupe (0-2-0, 0 points) Tuesday in Kansas City (9 p.m. ET, Fox Soccer Channel, TeleFutura), the USA(1-1-0, 3 points) is tied for second place with Canada (1-1-0, 3 points) and can finish first, second, third, or even fourth. Group leader Panama (2-0-0, 6 points) has qualified for thequarterfinals but could finish as low as third if it loses to Canada.
