The U.S. men’s national team will face arch-rivals Mexico Sunday night in the Concacaf Nations League final at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The USMNT comes into this match after Thursday’s unusual 3-1 extra-time win over Jamaica. The U.S. conceded in the first minute and trailed well into second-half stoppage time, yet ended up with a multiple-goal win after Gio Reyna and Haji Wright took over in extra time.

Mexico beat Panama 3-0 in the other semifinal, though the scoreline again doesn’t quite paint an accurate picture. El Tri certainly looked dangerous going forward, but conceded some big chances defensively.
The USMNT has been rather unimpressive since late last year, but has been on one of its best-ever runs against Mexico. A six-game unbeaten run matches the longest such streak for the U.S., with El Tri not winning a match between the sides since a September 2019 friendly.
Gregg Berhalter’s side is aiming to make it three Nations League titles from three tournaments, while Mexico will look for revenge after losing to the USMNT in a dramatic 2021 final.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.
