Aside from that good play from Pizarro, Mexico hasn't created chances at all.
31'
A little bit of confusion between Moreno and Ochoa, and Arriola was close from scoring the first goal of the night. Another clear chance for the Americans.
30'
Mexico is taking too long to interpret the game. Pulisic is the man to go to from the USA and the defenders still can't contain him.
Pizarro tries a bicycle kick but isn't able to contact the ball properly.
21'
Things starting to get chippy at the Soldier Field. Altidore going at 'Chaka' after a hard foul from the defender.
16'
Good play by Pizarro who sends a cross to Guardado but the midfielder isn't able to get a good touch on it.
15'
Far from their best level Rodriguez. Had a good tournament in Mexico last semester but hasn't been able to find his game.
13'
Mexico seems to struggle in the midfield.
11'
In the first minutes of this Gold Cup Final, the US is deserving to get the win. Already two good chances by Pulisic and Altidore but they couldn't get on the board.
7'
Unreal miss by Altidore. The striker had the clearest chance on a one-on-one play with Ochoa and he misshits it with the left foot.
5'
Incredible run by Pulisic but Ochoa makes a good save and keeps the match tied at zeros.
5'
First five minutes and still no clear chances for any of both teams.

The @USMNT and Mexico meet in the Gold Cup final for the 4th time in 12 years. 🇺🇸🇲🇽
The hype surrounding this game is unlike any other. Less than two hours away from the start of the match.
The last time this two teams met in a Gold Cup Final was back in 2011, when Mexico beat the US 4-2.
Will the United States crown two soccer champions today? This morning the women got their second World Cup in a row, and the men are looking to lift their second Gold Cup trophy and two years.
Martino thinks this about USA's coch
"First, I have a great respect for Gregg Berhalter, the person and for the coach. I think he is one of the best coaches that I have faced in MLS and obviously the football that he practices needs time and is what he had in friendly matches, I think that that tuning and that knowledge of what the coach wants, on the part of its players, it begins to be seen now in the Gold Cup with the matches that have already passed and even with the passage of time they are still going to do it better, it is not easy the way that Gregg proposes that his teams play that only in a handful of matches can be seen in its full dimension."
What does it mean to play for Mexico? El Tri stars answer that question in this great video.
"It's an even final, with possibilities for both sides, I imagine a game of much more shared protagonism. America proposes a football of attack, of tenure, of protagonism and undoubtedly we're going to have to face a different game from those we've played so far."
Martino speaks
Prior to the practice, Gerardo Martino spoke at a press conference, where he addressed topics such as tomorrow's game vs USMNT and what will happen with the team he leads.
Final practice
Relive the last training in Mexico. This is how El Tri practiced yesterday for tonight's game.
According to the bookmakers, Mexico is the favorite tonight and the tie in regular time is the second most feasible result.

Factor Tata
Gerardo Martino, the new coach of el Tri, will want to continue with his unbeaten streak, assuring that Mexico is on the right track, because they are in the final for a reason, so it is planned to play the same offensive way to previous games.
Player to watch: USA
Chelsea's Christian Pulisic, who has become one of the young promises for the US national team, will need to provide his starting eleven with an additional spark that can lead them to the title. USMNT are also in a period of adaptation to their new coach.
