All three of the USA’s victories have featured at least three goals with three different goal scorers and two of the matches had four different goal scorers. The most recent victory ended a streak in which Mexico had scored in 11 straight matches and 15 of the last 16. Saturday’s win against Mexico is also the USMNT’s first victory against a FIFA/Coca-Cola top-10 opponent since Nov. 12, 2021, in a 2-0 victory against then ninth-ranked Mexico. The U.S. ended 2025 with a three-game winning streak against Australia, Paraguay and Uruguay and begin the new cycle with three victories against Peru, Chile and Mexico.
MAKING HISTORY
During this international window, the USMNT has added three players to its youngest goalscorer list. After scoring against Mexico, forward Cavan Sullivan became the youngest goalscorer in USMNT history at 17 years and five days, surpassing midfielder Mathis Albert who scored against Chile aged 17 years, 131 days. Forward Julian Hall broke into the list in the first match of the window, scoring on his debut against Peru making the ninth youngest.
Following the match against Mexico, Hall became the third USMNT player to score in his first three appearances, alongside Alexander Rae and Eddie Johnson. Sullivan also became the youngest player to score against Mexico in the modern era, while Hall is now the third youngest player.
MAPLE LEAF IN MINNESOTA
The USMNT faces Canada for the first time since a 2-1 defeat in the 2025 Concacaf Nations League on March 23, 2025, in Inglewood, Calif. As one of the USA’s oldest foes, the history with Canada dates back over a century to 1925, when the USA fell 1-0 in Montreal, Canada. The USMNT has an overall record of 17W-12L-13D in all competitions against Les Rouges.
Canada’s 2022 and 2026 World Cup appearances mark consecutive tournament berths for the rising national team, which previously only qualified in 1986 edition. Canada’s 2026 tournament run went through group stage before ending in the Round of 16 against Morocco.
MINNESOTA MEETING
The USA and Canada will face off in Minnesota for the first time, with the U.S. holding a 3W-0L-0D record at Allianz Field in St. Paul and an unbeaten record in the state. The most recent matchup for the U.S. at Allianz Field was a 4-0 victory against Oman on Sept. 12, 2023. The USMNT’s most recent appearance in Minnesota was a 2025 Gold Cup penalty kick shootout victory against Costa Rica after a 2-2 draw in regulation in Minneapolis, Minn.
Minnesota has produced a great atmosphere for USMNT matches hosting multiple Concacaf Gold Cup and a FIFA World Cup qualifier. Allianz Field in St. Paul has seen record sell-out crowds and been a strong fortress for the U.S. since it’s first match in 2019.

BUILDING MOMENTUM
Serving as the other co-host of FIFA World Cup 2026, Canada made it to the Round of 16 before getting knocked out by AFCON title holders, Morocco. Les Rouges handled South Africa in its opening knockout round game after finishing second in Group B, which featured USMNT Round of 32 opponent Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Round of 16 finish is Canada’s best ever in a World Cup, finishing 14th overall.
MATCHUP WITH MARSCH
Canada is led by former USMNT player Jesse Marsch, who took control in May 2024 ahead of FIFA World Cup 2026. Marsch has strong ties with the U.S. serving as an assistant coach for the national team during the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. The former midfielder went on to manage the Montreal Impact and New York Red Bulls in MLS, before moving to Europe to coach Red Bull Salzburg, RB Leipzig and Leeds United.
Marsh has managed a 19W-10L-9D record en route to leading Canada to its best finish at a World Cup, reaching the Round of 16 in the 2026 edition. He also helped guide the nation to a semifinal appearance at the 2024 Copa América, losing 2-0 to eventual winners Argentina.

The roster also features Marcus Caldeira who currently plays at Minnesota United and two players that previously applied their trade at Allianz Field in Tani Oluwaseyi and Dayne St. Clair.
