Top stars were missing and no titles were at stake. Still, the United States took satisfaction in coming from behind late for a 1-1 exhibition draw against Mexico.
“There's no friendlies against Mexico. It's always a battle,” Jesús Ferreira said Wednesday night after scoring in the 81st minute on a counterattack that began after Carlos Rodríguez’s shot hit the crossbar.Matt Miazga's giveaway to Atuna led to Rodríguez’s shot off the crossbar and Miazga lofted the rebound from inside his penalty area to Sergiño Dest, who dribbled through the midfield and passed to Alan Soñora in the center circle.
“It's important,” U.S. interim coach Anthony Hudson said. “It allows us to go into the summer with a much better understanding of what we're going to face and also a better idea of the players.” Mexico scored after Acosta played a sloppy cross-field pass for Aaron Long at the midfield circle. The sprinting defender reached out with his left leg for the off-target pass only for Antuna to win the ball.
The U.S. has 22 wins, 36 losses and 17 draws against El Tri. Hudson, who took over from Gregg Berhalter in January, has led the Americans to two wins, one loss and two draws.
