Follow along as the longtime Concacaf rivals go head-to-head at Estadio Azteca, with both looking to take definitive steps toward the World Cup.
El Salvador (or a draw and a Costa Rica loss) to finish the job. Perhaps sensing the game starting to slip, Berhalter brought on two defensive subs, with Erik Palmer-Brown and Aaron Long coming on for Yedlin and Adams. Minutes later, Pulisic came off for Jordan Morris, with Berhalter staying true to his pregame word that he would use all five substitutes. The U.S. blew its best chance of the match a couple of minutes later. For the U.S., that could come Sunday. It’ll take a win over Panama and a Costa Rica draw or loss vs. Ochoa came up with the moment of the match in the 35th minute. No call was given, though, nor did the play go to VAR review, with play continuing and the score still 0-0. Sánchez couldn’t quite get to it with his outstretched leg, though, perhaps deterred a bit by Steffen coming off is line to cut the angle. There has been plenty of chatter in the build-up to Thursday night that the match between the U.S. men’s national team and Mexico was the last World Cup qualifier between the two. Panama. Reports out of Spain said that Shaq Moore, of Tenerife, would be joining the U.S., and Berhalter confirmed as much in his postgame comments. The U.S. had another potential opportunity at the three-minute mark, after Kellyn Acosta drew a foul in a dangerous area. That gave Acosta another free kick, and he had a go at goal, only to hit his powerful blast right at Ochoa. The U.S. and Mexico played to a 0-0 draw at Estadio Azteca Thursday night, with the U.S. having multiple chances thwarted by Mexico goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa and missing one golden opportunity through substitute forward Jordan Pefok. The result ended the U.S.’s three-game winning streak against Mexico, but serves both teams well after Panama’s draw vs.

El Salvador were officially eliminated from World Cup qualifying with a 1-1 draw with Jamacia but the match that US fans will have their eyes on is Panama vs. Stopping a good bit of team play as Mexico pushed up the pitch through Hector Herrera, Robinson was able to step forward to break up things in time. While you still want more from Pepi in the goal scoring department, his awareness of others is still next level. Still so much to play for, but the U.S. has to be fine with how this has gone. That should've put the US up 1-0 as Ochoa didn't have a chance. You would've thought that he had the entire Mexico team on skates as he made them miss slaloming through midfield. But Reyna showed once again why nobody on this team can match his talent, and he may have just earned the start against Panama with that display. Pulisic's miss in the first half on a ball from Tim Weah saw the Chelsea man kind of stumble a bit and fail to make clean contact, giving Mexico keeper Guillermo Ochoa a chance to get in front of it, and he knows he should have put it away. He made the Mexican defenders look silly, broke ankles along the way and produced a highlight USMNT fans will watch for years to come. The United States men's national team went to Mexico on Thursday in World Cup qualifying and came away with a 0-0 draw and a valuable point, putting the team on the brink of qualification. He didn't have to record a tackle, but he won every single one of his duels and aerials. The U.S. had nine shots but an xG of 1.26.
México y Estados Unidos tuvieron ocasiones francas de gol, pero no contundencia; firman un 0-0 en el Estadio Azteca que no perjudica a ninguno rumbo a Qatar ...
Al 35', Christian Pulisic tuvo en sus pies el gol de USA, pero un sensacional Ochoa tapó con el estómago para que la anotación del jugador del Chelsea no se diera y silenciara a un Estadio Azteca que en todo momento apoyó. México trataba de seguir con el control del balón y en una error en la salida de Estados Unidos, un pésimo control Jesús 'Tecatito' Corona impidió que hubiera gol del Tri, ante el coraje de Martino por esa falla del jugador del Sevilla al minuto 27. El México vs USA no quedó a deber en emociones, pero sí en goles con un 0-0 en el Estadio Azteca que no compromete a ninguno de cara a su clasificación al Mundial Qatar 2022 en el Octagonal Final de la Concacaf.
Get a report of the Mexico vs. United States 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifying - CONCACAF, Third Round football match.
As the game opened up, Hirving Lozano sent a shot just over the crossbar. Pulisic had another close call with an angled left-foot shot that Ochoa parried in the 49th for a corner kick. Jordan Pefok sent an open shot wide from a Giovanni Reyna pass, just after both entered the game. Sprinting toward goal with a defender giving chase, Pulisic redirected the ball with his left foot from 7 yards only for Ochoa to react quickly enough to block the shot off his ribcage. For much of the first half, two sections of American Outlaws in the upper deck were louder than Mexico's supporters. The top three nations qualify, and the No. 4 team advances to a playoff, likely against New Zealand.
The United States and Mexico match up on the Estadio Azteca field for the first time in five years, both hoping to secure valuable points as CONCACAF FIFA ...
The argument can definitely be made that the USA is a much more cohesive group than Mexico, even with the absences to injury. In fact, the U.S. has never won a competitive game at any Mexican ground, and while three points are the most important thing for either side, a slice of history would be a nice bonus for the visitors. That's a bummer for both Mexico and USMNT fans, who both need Panama to fall off the table. Tyler Adams is in despite being on a yellow card, Christian Pulisic is in, and Kellyn Acosta steps in for Weston McKennie. Only starting-caliber U.S. player on the bench is Gio Reyna, who Berhalter said would have his minutes managed. According to reports, Shaq Moore is on his way from Spain to the U.S., which would indicate Cannon will be taken off the roster and a replacement brought in. The free-kick is a good one but doesn't connect with a Mexico attacker. Weah is incensed with the call, understandably as he was going for a 50/50 throw-in. He challenges Jimenez in the box, and while Zimmerman appears to get a slight touch on the tackle, he has his hands all over the Mexican striker. This one's a much more difficult chance than the point-blank miss from the first-half, as the shot came in from a very tight angle down the left. 66th min: A very dangerous cross by Mexico from the right flank nearly catches DeAndre Yedlin with two men to guard, but he somehow gets his head to the ball and Zimmerman clears. He has a window from a tight angle down the right, but skies the chance. 90th+3 min: Mexico the team to push down the stretch, U.S. hanging on for dear life.
Minute-by-minute report: The old rivals face each other at the Azteca with a place at Qatar 2022 at stake. Join Bryan Graham for the latest news.
The US defeated Mexico three times in a calendar year for the first time ever in 2021, including a 2-0 win in World Cup qualifying back in November behind goals from Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie. So much for the rumblings that Gregg Berhalter might consider fielding a ‘B team’ to save the legs of key players for Sunday’s match against Panama with five on a yellow card and facing a one-match suspension if they collect another. 3 min: Already getting a bunch of questions about the sparse attendance for tonight’s match. Canada are top of the table with 25 points and the only team that can finish no lower than fourth. The several hundred USA fans in the upper deck behind the south goal were the loudest presence in the building for much of the first half. Alvarez is shown yellow and the US have a free kick from about 30 yards, but Acosta’s effort is hit directly at Ochoa. A chorus of lusty boos just rained down on the Americans as they emerged from the tunnel for the second half. 57 min: A half-chance then a proper chance for Mexico in quick succession. 60 min: The US have appeared badly in need of fresh legs over the past 10 minutes and Berhalter appears to agree. The referee does not award a penalty to the anger of the crowd. 70 min: Jiminez goes down in the box while attempting to make a move past his defender. And not for the first time today.
