USMNT extends unbeaten streak against Mexico in lead up to Nations League test.

The USMNT extended their unbeaten streak against Mexico to five games with a 1-1 draw in a midweek friendly. Jesús Ferreira and Jordan Morris combined for a late equalizer after the US fell behind to a Uriel Antuna goal. Interim head coach Anthony Hudson was surprised by Mexico's 3-5-2 formation and struggled to adjust, but some timely substitutions and added numbers in defense helped salvage the draw. Hudson must also figure out how to best utilize Ferreira, who played both as a withdrawn playmaker and a No. 9 in the match. The two teams will meet again in the Concacaf Nations League semifinals on June 15.

The USMNT secured a spot in the CONCACAF Nations League finals after defeating El Salvador 1-0, with Ricardo Pepi scoring the winning goal just moments after coming on as a substitute. The U.S. gradually took control of the match, but El Salvador, under manager and former U.S. international Hugo Sanchez, continued to give the U.S. all it could handle. Pepi's goal proved enough to claim the top spot in Group D and move on to the CNL finals in Las Vegas in June.
