VIDEO: Dempsey opens scoring for U.S. vs. Guatemala

Bill Streicher / USA TODAY Sports

Deep breaths, U.S. soccer fans - everything is going to be alright.

Following a 2-0 loss to Guatemala in Guatemala City earlier in the week - a loss that puts the U.S. Men's National Team in a precarious qualifying position - tensions were plenty high in Tuesday's reverse fixture at MAPFRE Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.

But those nerves were assuaged early in the match as Seattle Sounders forward Clint Dempsey scored a peach of a goal off a Gyasi Zardes backward header in the box.

See? Everything's fine.
