The U.S. men's national team (USMNT) emerged victorious in one of the most bizarre matches in its history on Sunday night, in the CONCACAF Nations League final against Mexico.
The 3-2 extra time win for Gregg Berhalter's men took customary CONCACAF silliness to a new level, as Mexico manager Gerardo 'Tata' Martino was shown a red card for interfering with VAR, a streaker ran on to the field, two controversial late penalties were awarded and players from both sides were pelted by projectiles from the fans in attendance.
It was a frustrating but at times hilarious match for soccer in the region, and one that seemed to send a jolt through social media on a night that had been expected to be all about the boxing exhibition involving Floyd Mayweather.
