USMNT Loses Historic Match to Canada
The USMNT suffered its first home loss to Canada in 67 years, continuing its struggles from this summer's Copa América. Canada's 2-1 win was its second-ever victory over the USMNT on U.S. soil and first since 1957.

Key Moments

  • Jacob Shaffelburg scored Canada's opening goal, and Jonathan David added a second just before the hour mark.
  • Luca de la Torre's goal in the 66th minute halved the deficit, but it wasn't enough to avoid a third straight loss.

What's Next
The USMNT faces New Zealand in Cincinnati on Tuesday. A defeat would result in the Americans' first four-game losing streak since 2007.
