Another edition of the USA vs. Mexico rivalry will go down in Cincinnati on Friday night with the USMNT hoping for an edge in the World Cup qualifier.
Friday night presents a huge opportunity for the US Men’s National Team to make another statement against Mexico.
The USA men beat their southern rivals in the CONCACAF Nation’s League and the CONCACAF Gold Cup earlier this year. Now they’ll face off in a World Cup Qualifier.
Mexico has 14 points as the top team in qualifying for the Qatar World Cup so far. The USMNT is second with 11 points, followed closely by Canada with 10. Panama sits fourth with eight while Costa Rica has six. Jamaica, El Salvador and Honduras bring up the rear.
The United States needs to be one of the top three teams at the end of qualifying to ensure their spot in the ultimate tournament. A win over Mexico would put them one step closer. A lose could open the door for disaster.
What time is the USMNT game today
The USMNT will kickoff against Mexico at 9:00 p.m. ET or 6:00 p.m. PT. at TQL Stadium, the home of FC Cincinnati.
What channel is the USMNT game on today?
You can watch all the action on ESPN2. If you’re looking for the Spanish-language broadcast you should turn to Univision/TUDN.
What is the USMNT starting 11 today?
Neither lineup has been officially released, but some on social media have leaked expected squads.

Este es el 11 titular con el que saltaría la Tri esta noche en Cincinnati!!!
El tema del central por derecha generó muchas dudas al Tata Martino…Moreno no está al 100 por ciento. Al final probó con todos, pero al parecer el Cata lleva la mano!!!@TUDNMEX @TUDNUSA pic.twitter.com/a0O9kMusCM
