da bwin： The FC Dallas striker was one of several standouts from a game that was never close to being competitive

da brwin： Well, what did you expect? An island of 50,000-ish people vs the United States men's national team? This game was always going to be a thrashing, one for the U.S. to build up its goal differential before heading into the group-deciding final match against Trinidad & Tobago.

By the time it was all over on Wednesday, the U.S. put six past St. Kitts and Nevis, running away as dominant winners. The first three of those goals came in a four-minute span between the 12th and 16th minutes, opening the floodgates that never stopped flooding.

Jesus Ferreira got three of the six as he scored his second career hat-trick. Bryan Reynolds scored his first national team goal, and on his birthday no less. Djordje Mihailovic also found the back of the net twice as the U.S. ran riot.

And, with that, it'll come down to the last game, as it always looked like it would. Both the U.S. and Jamaica have taken care of business after their tournament-opening draw. Now, it may come down to who scores most. Because of that, Wednesday night's match may just be significant, even if it didn't really teach us much about anyone involved.

GOAL rates the USMNT's players from CITYPARK in St. Louis…

GettyGoalkeeper & Defense

Sean Johnson (6/10):

Did he even need to be out there? The stats say 'not really!' Zero saves, just a few passes. Not much to do.

DeJuan Jones (7/10):

A solid game, even though he'll obviously be overshadowed. You see glimpses of what makes him so interesting as an option going forward, but those glimpses were a bit rarer than some of his team-mates.

Matt Miazga (7/10):

Made one big tackle in the Sugar Boyz's best attack and was solid enough other than that. A few bad passes that may have been punished against better teams, but not much to complain about.

Jalen Neal (8/10):

Another composed performance from the 19-year-old defender. Was passing the ball with ease and was good enough in the few moments where the opponents threatened. Need to see more of him, for sure.

Bryan Reynolds (9/10):

A big game from Big Bad Bryan. Was an absolute monster on the right-hand side, playing in cross after cross, while also scoring the best goal of the night.

James Sands (7/10):

Didn't have to clean up many messes but was fine when called upon. Chased down a whole bunch of hopeful long balls from St. Kitts and Nevis while making a few tackles.

Djordje Mihailovic (10/10):

Two goals and two assists, which is just about as good as you can be from a central midfield position. He could have had more goal contributions, too. Overall, you can see that Mihailovic's game is growing since his move to the Netherlands, although there's still plenty of growing to do in a USMNT shirt.

Gianluca Busio (8/10):

Two assists for the Venezia star, who had a pretty good game before coming off at half-time. His first assist was the best of the bunch, as he got to the byline and found his fellow central midfielder Mihailovic with a great ball into the middle.

Cade Cowell (6/10):

A somewhat disappointing night for the 19-year-old starlet. Just never really got going on a night that could have been his big chance. He wasn't bad, but he certainly didn't seize the night in a way that he could have.

Jesus Ferreira (10/10):

Another hat-trick for Ferreira, who certainly knows how to make the most of these matches. Of course, the opponents were overmatched, but he still had to score them. You can only beat the team in front of you, right?

Alejandro Zendejas (6/10):

A second game in a row where Zendejas just didn't look right. Was a bit too selfish at times and didn't really dominate in the way that he should have. He's still the guy on the right with this group, for sure, but he hasn't looked his best yet in this tournament.

GettySubs & Manager

Alan Sonora (6/10):

Came on at half-time, but was largely forgettable in his 45 minutes.

Brandon Vazquez (6/10):

Will definitely be jealous of how open the game was for Ferreira, as the U.S. took their foot off the gas a bit by the time he came on.

Aidan Morris (7/10):

Good on the ball with some solid passing and, defensively, there were a few good sequences. Overall, a solid effort.

Cristian Roldan (7/10):

Got the assist on Mihailovic's second goal after coming on for the final 20 minute or so.

Julian Gressel (6/10):

Came on late after returning to the team following the birth of his child. Not much else to note.

B.J. Callaghan (9/10):

A lopsided win, some easy subs and no injuries. About as good of a night as a coach can hope for.
