The United States frustrated rival Mexico at every turn in a heated clash in Nevada to score a 3-0 win and advance to Sunday's Nations League final against Canada.
Christian Pulisic was the ringleader of the 3-0 rout at Allegiant Stadium, scoring twice and performing with a swagger and sizzle that was contagious through the team. Substitute Ricardo Pepi’s late goal sent the pro-Mexican crowd streaming to the exits.
Another incident occurred in the 85th minute, resulting in the ejection of Dest and Mexico’s Gerardo Arteaga. Eight of the nine yellow cards came in the second half and each team committed 17 fouls overall. “You could tell it’s coming,” Turner said of the chant. “It goes against everything we stand for on our side. We’ve been very open and vocal about the strength of our team being our diversity, the strength of our nation being its diversity. Maybe the play sort of set [it] off in the stands, but it has no place in the game.”
“When you see him step on the field and put in that level of performance and set the standard for our group, you can only have a ton of respect for him,” interim coach B.J. Callaghan said. “That’s the type of performance he expects out of himself and that’s the type of performance we have come to expect from him.”Pulisic did squander a golden chance to break the deadlock in the 23rd minute when, despite having fallen goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa at his mercy, he missed high.
