Injured Ellis Scores, U.S. Blanks Canada 1-0 in Men’s Soccer Friendly
The win capped a 4-0 friendly window for the United States, which used 13 debutants and teenagers to reshape the roster.
- On Tuesday, teenager Justin Ellis scored in the 29th minute to lift the United States to a 1-0 victory over Canada in an international friendly in St. Paul, Minnesota.
- Canada head coach Jesse Marsch sparked pre-match tension by telling The Guardian on October 4 that America is a "propaganda-infused nation," while US manager Mauricio Pochettino focused on integrating youthful talent.
- Ellis capitalized on an Alex Freeman strike in the 29th minute, while Canada's vice-captain Stephen Eustaquio suffered a collarbone injury and left the match at halftime.
- Pochettino assessed the performance, stating "we managed really well, we competed really well," as the United States completed four consecutive international friendly victories during the window.
- Both squads shift focus to November's CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinals, with the United States facing Haiti while Canada prepares for a two-legged matchup against Guatemala.
