The US team, led by coach Mauricio Pochettino, secured a convincing win over their neighboring country. The match was a rematch of the two teams' joint hosting of the World Cup this summer. Malik Tillman, a former PSV player, started for the US, while Santiago Gimenez, a former Feyenoord striker, started for Mexico.
The home team opened the score after a quarter of an hour, with Julian Hall scoring the 1-0 goal. The US team doubled their lead a quarter of an hour after the break, with Cavan Sullivan scoring the 2-0 goal. The match took a turn for the worse for Mexico when Mateo Chávez, who came on as a substitute, was given a direct red card for striking Sebastian Berhalter in the face. The US team sealed the win with a third goal from Tillman, who was given the ball by the Mexican defense.
