The United States men’s national team built a commanding 5–0 advantage over Trinidad and Tobago in their CONCACAF Gold Cup match on Sunday night.

Midfielder Brenden Aaronson, wearing No. 11, snapped a nearly two-year scoring drought for the national side when he recorded the Americans’ fourth goal. Substitute striker Haji Wright added a fifth moments later to extend the lead.

Gerson, the 28-year-old midfielder from Flamengo, has accepted a contract offer from Russian club Zenit Saint Petersburg. Zenit will pay Flamengo a release clause of 25 million euros (approximately R$160 million) to secure the transfer, which is expected to be finalized after the FIFA Club World Cup. The contract with Zenit is reported to be for five years with a salary described as "irrefusable." Flamengo's player and staff, including Filipe Luís, have indicated that Gerson remains focused and unchanged in his current role with the team as they prepare for the tournament. Luiz Henrique, a former Botafogo player, confirmed having discussed Zenit with Gerson, providing insights about the Russian club. The transfer marks the end of Gerson's tenure at Flamengo following the Club World Cup.
