The United States comfortably avoided embarrassment as it took a small but necessary step towards World Cup qualification on Friday, beating St. Vincent and the Grenadines 6-0 in Kingstown.
Victory was, as it should have been, a formality, part of the process that must be completed in exchange for a shot at competing in the biggest tournament in soccer.
Goals from Bobby Wood, Matt Besler and Jozy Altidore, Christian Pulisic (twice) and Sacha Kljestan sealed the points and meant that regardless of the result later on Friday between Trinidad and Tobago and Guatemala, one more win put would put the Americans into the final six-team qualifier that will send at least three teams to the World Cup in 2018.
On Tuesday, the U.S. will host T+T in Jacksonville, Fla., with a victory enough to top the group and provide a welcome confidence boost before competition gets tougher over the next year and change.
