Two of its biggest stars, Alfonso Davies (Bayern Munich) and Jonathan David (Lille) scored in Canada’s 2-0 victory over Panama in their first semi-final, a match that also featured an 89th-minute display. But the US-Mexico semi-finals…
It was all here: American star Christian Pulisic, who had fallen out of favor at Chelsea, came first in the 37th minute, then after his turn, in the 46th minute, making a huge lead and starting the tension. Mexican referee Cesar Montes was sent off first in the 69th minute, and after two minutes, American Weston McKinney was able to take a shower as well.
In the 79th minute, a goal from twenty-year-old Ricardo Pepe decided the match, but there was a problem at the end: in the 86th minute, Gerardo Ortega and Sergino Dest received a red card from both teams.
In the CONCACAF Region Nations League Series, the final will be played between the United States and Canada.
