Two years since the U.S. Men’s National Team’s last win over CONCACAF rivals Mexico, the Americans got to celebrate that feeling once again.Julian Hall, Cavan Sullivan, and Malik Tillman sll scored on Saturday night as Mauricio Pochettino’s squad defeated El Tri 3-0 at State Farm Stadium. It marked the Americans’ third victory of the September-October window and a first head-to-head win over Mexico since March 2024. A frantic start from both teams eventually saw the hosts strike first.Hall benefitted from a Raul Rangel error to give the USMNT a 1-0 first-half lead and score for the third-consecutive match.Gio Reyna’s cut back pass from the right wing forced Rangel to punch the ball away, but Hall was in the right spot to slam home the rebound. THREE GAMES. THREE GOALS.

Roberto Alvarado’s left-footed volley looked destined to land in the top-right corner but Kochen dove to his left to deny the veteran. DENIED BY DIEGO! pic.twitter.com/mhzwcb5Qn5— U.S. Soccer Men's National Team (@USMNT) October 4, 2026Minutes after Kochen’s key save, the USMNT doubled their lead through a second Rangel error.Rangel looked to play a pass out of the back, but Sullivan intercepted the pass and chipped home from 30+ yards out into an empty net for a 2-0 advantage. Sullivan became the youngest goalscorer in USMNT history after the tally, surpassing Mathis Albert, who held the record since Tuesday’s win over Chile.CAVAN SULLIVAN PICKS HIS POCKET AND SENDS IT IN FROM WAYYYYYY DOWNTOWN! #USMNT x @VW pic.twitter.com/tTiumwSPsS— U.S. Soccer Men's National Team (@USMNT) October 4, 2026Things got worse for Mexico as the half went on as halftime substitute Mateo Chavez was sent off 22 minutes after entering the pitch. A Chavez foul on Yunus Musah led to Sebastian Berhalter confronting the 22-year-old defender before Chavez delivered a two-handed slap to Berhalter’s face.Chavez was shown the exit and the USMNT would take advantage to extend their lead. Tillman pounced on a poor back pass from Alvaro Fidalgo before roofing a shot past Rangel for his fourth goal in the last five outings.

Sullivan, Tillman, Hall and Alex Freeman were among the standout performers for the hosts, who never truly looked troubled outside of Kochen’s key second-half save. The USMNT closes out their four-match international window against Canada on Tuesday in St. Paul, Minnesota.
