Final: USA 1, Panama 0
Reliant Stadium, Houston, Texas, USA
CONCACAF Gold Cup
06/22/2011
A very quiet game for both goalkeepers. Penedo was only required to touch the ball 20 times, 6 touches less than an average game. From the goalkeeping statistics, it looks as if Panama forced most of the attack in the match. Tim Howard's exceptional finger tip redirection over the bar in the 79th minute proved to be the difference in the match.
Howard wins the GK battle.
The USA goal may have been prevented with some increased communication from the goalkeeper (Penedo) to the panamanian left defender. The defender fails to step to the ball leaving the attacker 10 extra yards to advance, and a few extra seconds to pick up his head and find another attacker at the far post. The execution by the attacker was exceptional, Penedo had no chance to defend this on his own. His near-post positioning was proper.
