Yunus Musah blasted a glorious strike from outside the box that careened off the crossbar in the fifth minute of the game.in the 26th minute after winning a free kick just outside of the box. The 25-year-old lined up a beautiful strike to the bottom left corner that beat Alisson Becker to make the score 1–1.

The USMNT had a handful of other scoring chances in the second half, but Alisson did well to deny them a go-ahead goal on multiple occasions, culminating in the draw. The Americans played confidently and never lacked belief throughout the 90 minutes, earning what will go down as a historic draw against one of their fiercest foes. It's a significant improvement from their previous result, a 5–1 defeat against Colombia, leading up to the 2024 Copa America tournament.
