In the 75th match between the rivals, the U.S. extended its unbeaten streak against Mexico to five games. The sprinting defender reached out with his left leg for the off-target pass only for Antuna to win the ball. The goal ended an 803-minute scoreless streak for Johnson, a backup to Matt Turner at the World Cup. Mexico started just three World Cup regulars; left back Jesús Gallardo and midfielders Luis Chávez and Alexis Vega. Defender Víctor Guzmán and forward Roberto de la Rosa started in El Tri debuts, and Ozziel Herrera made his debut in the 87th minute.
