(The Guardian) 68 min: Aaronson tries to take a free kick quickly and finds himself the victim of some MMA-style ground-and-pound. Both teams are mad. Both cards remained pocketed. Oops ... spoke too soon. It’s a yellow for Zack Steffen, who walked all the way up the field to argue, another for Weston McKennie, who’ll be suspended for the next game, and another for Luis Rodriguez, who poked Aaronson in the eye and probably would’ve earned sterner punishment if we had VAR.Yes. I said it. We need VAR. Aaronson was already slated to exit in favor of ... Christian Pulisic.

(The Guardian) 70 min: So to sum up -- Mexico should be playing with 10 men now, and Christian Pulisic is in. Naturally, Mexico gets its first spell of possession in the US half in the last 20 minutes or so.
74 min: A couple of set pieces for Mexico.

(The Guardian) GOAL! USA 1-0 Mexico (Pulisic 74)Pulisic provides the finishing touch with a close-range header a couple of minutes after coming on the field, but it’s that man again, Timothy Weah, beating two men on the flank and putting that cross right where it needs to be. The breakthrough at last.

(The Guardian) 79 min: Herrera drives the ball through traffic, but Steffen gathers easily. Tata Martino, having seen what can be accomplished through substitution, starts to consider making one of his own.

(The Guardian) 83 min: Mori for Alvarez will be the third Mexican substitution. Meanwhile, Mexico is getting a bit more possession, as one might expect when a team suddenly finds itself behind, and Steffen has to come out to punch clear on a free kick. Then he smothers a promising cross.
85 min: Weah crosses to the far post for McKennie, giving the USA some activity in the box.

(The Guardian) GOAL! USA 2-0 Mexico (McKennie 85)Dos a cero. Again. Several short passes unlock the Mexican defense. A McKennie pass attempt deflects right back to him, and he’s all alone. His composed finish tucks inside the post.

(The Guardian) 88 min: Pulisic and Weah conspire to possess the ball on the right, and a frustrated Herrera plows through Pulisic. Chelsea supporters will wince upon seeing Pulisic writhe around in apparent pain, but he’s fine. RED CARD (Robinson 90)Hirving Lozano leaves Miles Robinson in the dust with a quick cutback move, and the young US center back gives chase. He grabs Lozano’s shoulder, and that’s his second yellow. He’ll miss the next game, and US supporters will hope it won’t affect anything here. Four minutes of stoppage time.
