STATE FARM STADIUM (Glendale, Arizona) – The U.S. men's national soccer team ended its winless streak against teams in FIFA's top 10 rankings. The United States achieved an important victory in an environment where more than 60,000 Mexican fans were present, beating their biggest rival Mexico 3-0. 18-year-old forward Julian Hall scored in his third consecutive game, while 17-year-old Cavan Sullivan scored the second goal. Malik Tillman was the one who determined the score at the end of the match.

1. Cavan Sullivan's Historic Goal In the match against Peru last week, Cavan Sullivan took the field as the second youngest player in the history of the US men's national team. In this match, he managed to score a historic goal by taking advantage of Jose Rangel's erroneous pass and passing the Mexican goalkeeper. Sullivan thus became the youngest goal scorer in the 113-year history of the United States.

2. Message Against the Biggest Competitor Prior to the two losses against Mexico in 2024 and 2025, the United States had defeated Mexico three consecutive times this century in the Concacaf Nations League final and the 2021 Gold Cup final. However, this balance changed with Mauricio Pochettino's appointment as coach. Pochettino pointed out how his young squad would perform in this match. However, the young players painted a promising picture for the future with their performance against Mexico.

3. Julian Hall, Goal Machine Red Bull New York's 18-year-old forward Julian Hall might not have been in Pochettino's squad. Folarin Balogun and Haji Wright, who were in the World Cup, were not called up for this match. Hall managed to score a goal as a substitute in the 4-1 win against Peru, and then shook the net in the 4-2 match against Chile. Hall, who scored the goal that gave the home team a 1-0 lead in the Mexico match, proved that he was an important player in Pochettino's young squad.

4. Diego Kochen Gave Confidence in the Goal In recent years, the USA has had a difficult time producing goalkeepers. However, 20-year-old Diego Kochen stands out as the best goalkeeper candidate in recent times. Pochettino showed his confidence by putting him in goal in this difficult environment in Glendale. His magnificent save against Mexico's Roberto Alvarado in the 58th minute showed his potential. The future situation of Kochen is eagerly awaited.4. A Familiar Rival Is Next Following their win over Mexico, the USA will move on to another rivalry with Canada just two days later. Historically, the USA leads this series with 17 wins, 12 losses and 2 draws. However, they have won just once in the last six matches. In Minnesota, can they break this streak?

What's next

With this victory, the USA found morale in the preparation process for the 2026 World Cup. The performance of young players could play an important role in coach Mauricio Pochettino's future squad planning. In the upcoming matches, whether these young talents can maintain their form will determine the USA's season outlook.
