“I apologize for the performance and the results,” the former Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur coach said.

The Yanks continued their demolishing exercise as Monaco attacker Folarin Balogun hit the back of the net to extend USA’s lead in the 22nd minute.

Just before half-time, Reyna added the United States’ fourth from an indirect freekick in the box to seal victory for the host.

Earlier against Mexico at the Bank of America Stadium, Ghana went down 2-0.

After the two games, the Black Stars conceded six goals and could not score in any of the games.
