The United States Under-15 Boys National Team capped off a perfect week at the Concacaf Championship with a 4-2 win in the final over Mexico.
Chase Adams scored twice, while Jamir Johnson and Julian Hall chipped in goals on the way to what was a comfortable win in the end.
After a relatively even opener, the U.S. struck first in the 18th minute. Cavan Sullivan took advantage of a defensive lapse, ghosting onto a pass in behind the Mexico back line. The defender recovered, but Sullivan deftly cut back to create space, sending in a perfect cross for an Adams tap in.
Sullivan was at the heart of the second goal as well, as the U.S. double the lead just about 10 minutes later. Adams squared a pass to Sullivan, who was rushing towards the back line. He slipped in Johnson, who provided an excellent finish to make it a 2-0 lead at the half.
Johnson helped turn provider in the 37th minute as the U.S. made it 3-0. After receiving the ball on the right side of the box, he lofted a perfect cross to a wide-open Hall. The Red Bull forward's shot hit the post, bouncing straight to the feet of Adams who made no mistake for the brace.
Ten minutes later, Mexico capped off a strong spell with a goal from Maximo Reyes, who headed home from a set piece. That cut the lead to 3-1, though the U.S. able to answer back. Johnson connected with Hall again in the 63rd minute with a beautiful low cross that Hall slotted home to restore the three-goal lead.
Reyes added a second on the day, beautifully chipping Mackay after a defensive mixup, but with just a minute lefte before added time, the U.S. defense held on for the regional crown.
U.S. Starting Lineup: Will Mackay; Juan Villa, Sebastian Chavez, Ramiz Hamouda, Miguel Alvarado; Jude Terry, Isaac Tortola, Cavan Sullivan; Jamir Johnson, Chase Adams, Julian Hall
