The United States Mens National Soccer Team (USMNT) hoped to win their fourth straight match against their arch rival Mexico, but came away tied 0–0, missing two golden opportunities at goals that would have given them their first victory in the CONCACAF (Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Assoc. Football) World Cup qualifying at the famed Azteca Stadium in Mexico City, on March 24th.

The United States remains second in qualifying, edging Mexico by goal differential, plus nine over plus six, as both teams have 22 points, trailing Canada’s 25. The top three teams automatically qualify in this year’s World Cup competition with two games remaining through next Wednesday.
