The Mauricio Pochettino era got off to a successful start on Saturday, as the US national football team secured a 2-0 victory over Panama in Austin, Texas.

Pochettino’s USMNT will face a tougher test on Tuesday when it plays its first friendly in Mexico since 2012. While the USMNT has not lost to Mexico on US soil since 2019, it has just one all-time win in Mexico, which came in that friendly 2012 competition.

Pochettino brings a wealth of coaching experience to the US program, replacing former coach Gregg Berhalter, who was fired after the USMNT were unceremoniously dismissed following a disappointing performance in the 2024 Copa America. Pochettino was announced as the new USMNT coach on September 10 and has less than two years to transform the team for the 2026 World Cup after the Copa America debacle.

That journey to the 2026 World Cup got off to a strong start, thanks to goals from Yunus Musah and Ricardo Pepi in Saturday’s win. For Musah, Saturday’s result represented his first international goal. The win snapped a four-game winless run for the USMNT, as well as a two-game skid against Panama.

Pulisic returned to his club team, AC Milan, with what US Soccer called ‘load management’. US coach Mauricio Pochettino had previously expressed concern about Pulisic’s heavy workload.

McKennie – who did not play in Saturday’s win over Panama – along with Fossey, Pepi and Steffen have “minor injuries” and will also return to their respective club teams.

For the match against Mexico, no additional players have been added to the squad to replace the absent players.
