USA extends unbeaten run vs. Mexico to five games after lackluster Continental Crapico draw

If you only tuned into the last 10 minutes of the United States men’s national team's 1-1 draw vs. Mexico on Wednesday in the Continental Clásico friendly, then you saved yourself 80 minutes of suffering.

The USMNT made it five games in-a-row without a defeat to their archrivals thanks to a Jesús Ferreira equalizer in the 81st minute. 

Before I tell you about how awful the rest of the game was, let’s enjoy the big highlight of the game.

Ni en los moleros: El momento exacto en que México perdió la chance de volver a ganarle a Estados Unidos

México no puede con Estados Unidos. Ni en la Nations League, ni en la Copa Oro, ni en Eliminatorias ni en los amistosos moleros.

El Tri empató con el USMNT en Glendale, Arizona, y extendió a cinco el número de partidos en que no puede vencer a su más enconado rival. La última vez que lo hizo fue el 6 de septiembre de 2019, en tiempos donde la humanidad ni siquiera sabía de la existencia del COVID.

Qué tiempos aquellos.

La alineación con que México busca acabar su mala racha ante Estados Unidos

Se acabó el cabeceo con la pizarra. Diego Cocca tendría definida la alineación de México para su amistoso contra Estados Unidos, a jugarse este miércoles 19 de abril en Glendale, Arizona.

Etiquetado como "Clásico Continental", el partido es el primero de Cocca al mando del Tri y el primero de al menos dos que jugarán ambas selecciones este 2023.

The neck and neck goalscoring battle between Ricardo Pepi and Santi Giménez in the Eredivisie

The spicy rivalry between the USMNT and México is having a remarkable round in the 2022-23 Eredivisie as strikers Ricardo Pepi and Santiago Giménez battle neck and neck among the division's top scorers. After 29 games, both have netted 11 goals and are just three behind Xavi Simmons (PSV) and Anastasios Douvikas (FC Utrecht), who currently lead the race with 14 each.

Although the realities of their teams are extremely different, Pepi and Giménez are not giving space to each other with both finding the net again this weekend.

The boys are back! Arriola, Roldan, Miazga and more included in latest USMNT roster

The United States men’s national team announced the 23-man roster for the inaugural Continental Clásico on Wednesday, April 19. The friendly doesn’t take place during an international window meaning the latest USMNT roster is comprised almost entirely of Major League Soccer players.

The 23-man roster only includes one player from a European club, Sergiño Dest. The American right back has essentially been banished from AC Milan’s starting lineup and the club OK’d the decision for him to leave the club to partake in the friendly.
