Long shot wasted by Mexico. Coaches having words with one another on sideline.

More long balls up the sideline to Weah give the ball back to Mexico. Mexico keep it and get forward , look dangerous before cross cleared, for it only to come back to Mexico who again look dangerous on a cross, but it goes out for a goal kick. Berhalter needs to get this team settled and look a little bit more possessive. Pepi has done very little and looks like Pefok needs to come on soon. 57th min.

Lozano skies it over cross bar after receiving the ball in space, Yedlin too slow to stop him going forward. 58th. Musah wins foul in attacking half. Alvarez already on a yellow, escapes getting a 2nd. Free kick taken by Acosta. Cross cleared for a corner USA left side. Pulisic on the corner, low drive, nothing comes of it, Mexico counter leads to break away, shot Lozano too weak, easy save for Steffen. 60th. Reyna in for Weah. Pefok on for Pepi. USA going for the win now. 61st minute.

Herrera whistled for a foul receiving the ball at the top of the penalty circle. USA later lose possession again with these long desperate passes to the forward line. Midfield play again desperate going forward, not patient waiting for better passes. Musah long ball finds Pulisic to get it foward. After a throw in in attacking half, USA win foul from Alvarez on Acosta who was late to the ball. Again, no yellow. 64th.

USA too casual on ball and lose it for only to be bailed out by the ref for inadvertent touch....drop ball. Musah looks hurt on the ground in pain. 68th. min. break in the game allows water break for players while Musah receives attention.

USA currently playing a man down till Musah gets back on field. Mexico pressing for a goal , but play too long to Steffan, USA keep possession in tight spaces for only to give it back by playing bad passes. Musah turns over ball deep in defensive third, Mexico dive in box, ref does not allow call. Goal kick USA. VAR agrees. Musah too casual gave ball away. Major mistake . Berhalter needs to fix this midfield. 71st.

USA combination plays leADS to a wide open shot for Pefok who tries to pass instead of shoots and really fouls it up. That was the chance that should have been put away. what's up with that?!

Reyna one touch cross was perfect. Pefok is going to have nightmares over that. Yedlin later gets open going forward and fatigue causes him to waste the opportunity. Later Pefok gets a heading chance, but way over the ball from 20 yards out atop the box. 75th.

Reyna slaloms through the whole Mexican defense before too much loses it after taking it up the whole field. 78th.

Lozano shot from top right of the box just misses. Steffan gets fingertips on it. Lozano appeals. Mexico subs, guittierez for Rodriques. USA get water on the sideline as well as instructions. Vega comes on for Mexico. Erik Palmer Brown, 1st cap, comes on along with Erik long for Yedlin and Adams. 80th min.

Ten minutes till extra time. game is open for anyone to steal. Cross bounces in front of USA goal for Mexico, but USA get lucky . Again, USA look too awkward and tense to seem to have a chance, but they keep plugging away. 82nd.

A Robinson reckless play. Jordan Morris subs for Pulisic. Not a good game for Pulisic. Looks like the chess game tired him out. 84th

Mexico playing ball in USA half repeatedly as USA cannot maintain possession and move it out. Lozano looks to do it, before losing ball to Robinson, when again, bad passing thwarts USA. Acosta tries a long shot 40 yards, 87th min.

This is when Mexico steal their wins. Another opportunity before given away to Reyna who holds and wins a foul and allows USA to catch their breaths and maintain possession. USA free kick Half field taken by Zim who passes to USA who slips and falls and gives it back to Mexico. Morris takes down Lozano...Ref gives Vega yellow for diving. 5 minutes extra time. That was costly as he will miss next game. Lucky for USA nothing came of that. USA desperate to run this clock out and leaVE WITH A point. 90 plus 1

Mexico continue to keep possession. USA on the heels. When they get the ball back , they give it right back. Mexico pressing by keeping the ball and patiently working it around. ball comes out to Mexico, missed opportunity. 90 plus 3'
