Another instalment of the rivalry between the USA and Canada is set for Saturday as the two neighbours clash in a friendly at Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City.
The hosts are recovering from a lacklustre Copa America performance this past summer, where they were eliminated in the group stage. Meanwhile, the Canucks had a stronger showing, reaching the semi-finals and eventually finishing in fourth place.
A string of underwhelming performances by his side at the Copa America marked the end of Gregg Berhalter's era as head coach of the USA, following his successful reign that included two CONCACAF Nations League titles and a Gold Cup. He was dismissed shortly after the tournament.
Although not officially confirmed, it is widely reported that former Tottenham and Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is expected to take over, guiding this talented generation towards the next World Cup, which will be co-hosted by the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
