The U.S. Under-20 Mens National Team has been drawn with Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, Aruba, Panama and Guatemala in Group A for the 2015 CONCACAF U-20 Championship. The draw took place in Montego Bay, Jamaica, and the qualification tournament for the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup takes place Jan. 9-24 in Kingston and Montego Bay. In the group stage, the USA opens against Guatemala on Jan. 9, followed by Panama (Jan. 11), Aruba (Jan. 14), Jamaica (Jan. 18) and Trinidad & Tobago (Jan. 21). The tournament will qualify four teams to the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup in New Zealand. It was a difficult draw for many of the teams, including Group A because we will be one of the teams that has to travel from Kingston to Montego Bay during the tournament, U.S. U-20 MNT head coach Tab Ramos said. I think getting drawn with Jamaica and Panama in particular, those will be some difficult opponents. At the end of the day, if you want to advance to the World Cup, you need to beat good teams, so were looking forward to the tournament. 2015 CONCACAF U-20 Championship • Group A: Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, Aruba, Panama, USA, Guatemala • Group B: Haiti, Canada, Mexico, Cuba, Honduras, El Salvador
