The United States Menâs National Team lifted the CONCACAF Nations League for the third successive year on Sunday following a 2-0 victory over Mexico in Arlington, Texas.
Scorers: Adams 45âČ, Reyna 63âČ
A stunning long-range strike from Tyler Adams gave Gregg Berhalterâs side the lead just before half-time.
With Giovanni Reyna tucking in at the near post on the half volley to make it 2-0 just after the hour mark.
Mexico thought theyâd been given a route back into the game when USMNT defender Antonee Robinson conceded a penalty for a high boot, but the refereeâs on-field decision was overturned by a VAR check.
USMNT captain Christian Pulisic got his hands on the trophy for the third successive year at full-time, and the Stars and Stripes will hope to take this momentum into the Copa América coming up this summer.
The final was marred, however, by homophobic chants from the crowd, which forced the match to be stopped twice in the dying stages.
