The United States brought a massive group of young stars to Tuesday’s friendly with Mexico.

While it wasn’t always pretty, the youngsters did just enough to get the job done.

Tyler Adams scored a goal in the 71st minute, and Zack Steffen recorded a clean sheet as the United States earned a 1-0 victory.

Each side had only three shots on goal in a mostly tepid affair. Neither did much in the way of attacking in the rivalry matchup, which took place at Nissan Stadium in Tennessee.
