In a pulsating Gold Cup final, Mexico snatched a 2-1 victory over the USA to claim their record-extending 10th title at Houston’s NRG Stadium, leaving American fans gutted.
The Yanks struck first through Chris Richards’ early header, but Mexico roared back with Raul Jimenez leveling the score, his goal a heartfelt nod to late Wolves teammate Diogo Jota. Edson Alvarez sealed the deal with a 77th-minute header after a VAR drama, sparking wild celebrations among the Mexican faithful.
Javier Aguirre’s side dominated possession, outclassing a USMNT missing key stars like Christian Pulisic. This triumph, Mexico’s second trophy of 2025 after the Nations League, cements their CONCACAF supremacy. The USA, under Mauricio Pochettino, now lick their wounds, with fans crying foul over a missed penalty call. Mexico’s victory sets the stage for a fiery buildup to the 2026 World Cup they’ll co-host. Bet on El Tri to keep flexing their regional muscle!
