The USA took on El Salvador with a trip to the Nations League Finals at stake. After making quick work of Grenada at the end of last week, the Stars and Stripes faced a cagy opponent in El Salvador. Los Cuscatlecos held the USA to a 0-0 draw at home and lost just 1-0 in January of 2022 in Columbus in World Cup qualifying. They would once again prove to be a difficult matchup for the USA as a frustrating first half was followed by a somewhat more open second 45 as Ricardo Pepi came off the bench to give the Stars and Stripes a solid but hard fought 1-0 victory.
