The United States Men’s National Team looked underwhelming in Thursday’s match against Trinidad and Tobago, but then Christian Pulisic put his stamp on the game, to help the Yanks to a 2-0 win in Colorado.
Tonight, the USMNT faces an all-too-familiar threat — the Yanks must go into the Azteca as underdogs and hope to leave with at least one point. The U.S., sitting in third place in the Hex, take on the group leaders in the 87,000-seat stadium, 7,200 feet above sea level.
Although the U.S. has only ever gained five points from 11 games in the heart of Mexico, the last two visits resulted in four of them.
