Oof. That should’ve been a 2nd yellow. Jamaica lucky not to be down to 10 men here.

Ok, now it’s game over. Pulisic’s second goal of the night puts it to bed.

Solid win. Much better performance today than against Curacao. I think the x-factor right now Pulisic is playing lights out right now. Mexico needed a late penalty, a generous one too, to beat Haiti. I think both teams haven't played their best tournament, but both teams will show up come Sunday. Big day Sunday with the World Cup Final in the morning and then the Gold Cup Final against Mexico in the evening. I could be spectacular or disastrous day.

Got a feeling Sunday is going to be a fun one. Both teams will play better then they have throughout this tournament and the importance of the occasion will up the play.

Great to be back in the final again!

Book on GGG is kind of neutral. There was a tough loss to Venezuela as well as Jamaica but they avenged the latter yesterday.

A US/Mexico Gold Cup final it is. I think this was what was predicted. Would have been nice to see Canada get further than they did.

Those were friendlies.

Dude after the Jamaica and Venezuela games fans were calling for his head

That's US Soccer for ya.

On an unrelated note:

https://www.espn.com/soccer/mexico/...-chant?platform=amp&__twitter_impression=true

Mexico fans are being asked to stop a controversial goalkeeper chant for Sunday's CONCACAF Gold Cup final against the United States on Sunday at Soldier Field, with FIFA warning of the prospect of games being suspended during the next World Cup qualifying cycle if it continues.

The chant is one of the dumbest I've heard. There is no reason Mexican fans should keep chanting it.

Let’s be honest, asking them to stop is only gonna make them do it more.

The only thing that’ll stop it is either DQing the team or forcing them to repeatedly play in front of an empty stadium.

Same starting lineup for the U.S. as the semi final. Less confident about the men than I was about the women this morning, but I think they have a chance.
