Jesus Ferreira scores four as USA thrash Grenada in Nations League
Jesus Ferreira shook off early frustration to score four goals as the United States launched their CONCACAF Nations League title defence with a 5-0 rout of Grenada on Friday. The 21-year-old FC Dallas striker, trying to stake a claim to a spot in Gregg Berhalter's World Cup side, took a while to heat up in the steamy conditions at Q2 Stadium in Austin, Texas, where the Americans dominated possession against 170th-ranked Grenada but were unable to capitalize on a stream of first-half chances. After firing wide in the 28th minute and seeing his left-footed shot saved by Grenada keeper Jason Belfon in the 33rd, Ferreira finally broke through in the 43rd minute. He collected a deflected cross from Dallas teammate Paul Arriola and delivered a left-footed shot from the center of the box inside the far post. It was the first of three goals in a 13-minute span.
