That's now two consecutive victories for Mexico over the United States. Following a 1-0 win over the USMNT during July's Gold Cup final, El Tri once again showcased why the Mexicans remain the dominant force in North American soccer. Thanks to goals from Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez, Erick Gutierrez and Uriel Antuna, Mexico waltzed to a simple and convincing 3-0 friendly result on Friday night.
Positives
There's a clear and cohesive identity that manager Gerardo "Tata" Martino is embedding into his team. Through a pressing and attack-minded 4-3-3 formation, Mexico dictated the pace of the game and frustrated the Americans consistently in the midfield.
