Patrick Everson spoke to a bookmaker to recap the USA-Panama match from a betting perspective. It was a tough night for the USMNT, but read how sportsbooks came out on top big.

In the final minutes of the USA-Panama Copa América match, after underdog Panama took a 2-1 lead, BetMGM trading manager Seamus Magee leaned into The Sopranos for an analogy. 'If this result holds, as Tony Soprano once said: ‘It's a rainy night in Lyndhurst' for bettors,' Magee said. Indeed, bettors got soaked as the 2-1 result held Thursday night in Atlanta, a stunning upset loss for the U.S. men's national team.

' There was no shortage of USA bettors willing to lay -250 or more – the odds got as high as -310 at BetMGM – on the moneyline. Even at -250, that required a $250 bet to make $100 . Some BetMGM customers looked for value by instead taking Team USA -1.5 goals at even money, meaning a $100 bet would win $100 . But the sportsbook scooped up all those bets, as well. 'It just adds to the huge result,' Magee said.
