Following a 2-0 win over Trinidad and Tobago on Thursday, the United States men’s national team will head to the infamous Estadio Azteca in Mexico City to take on Mexico in Matchday 6 of the Hexagonal in CONCACAF 2018 FIFA World Cup Qualifying.


Featuring Seattle Sounders forwards Clint Dempsey and Jordan Morris, the U.S. are in search of valuable points in the return fixture of a 2-1 home loss to El Tri last November. Mexico are coming off a 3-0 home win over Honduras on Thursday and sit atop the Hex with 13 points at the halfway point.
