USMNT player ratings: How did the Americans stack up against Mexico in the 1-1 draw?

The goalkeeper position is still wide open for the USMNT. Brad Guzan got the nod against Mexico, but it wasn't a performance to inspire much confidence from the 32-year-old. The Atlanta United 'keeper wasn't troubled too often on the night, but he was beaten too easily on his near post for Mexico's goal.

Gonzalez was immense. He won header after header for 90 minutes, and he completely neutralized Chicharito, tracking his runs superbly all night and frustrating the Bayer Leverkusen striker throughout. You couldn't ask for too much more.

At the heart of the USMNT's shifting three-man/five-man back line, Geoff Cameron was an absolute monster. He made clearance after clearance, he was solid in possession, and he marshaled the defense fantastically. You'd be hard pressed to find anything he did wrong in the Azteca. 

Tim Ream did his job quietly but confidently on the night. An early misstep nearly gifted Chicharito a goal in the first half, but aside from that gaffe, he was just about flawless. A solid showing all around. 

Yedlin was pinned back more than he's used to on the night, but dealt with the threat of Jesus Gallardo decently well. He needed every bit of his pace and quickness to keep up with the Pumas winger, but stuck to the task relatively well. 

Beasley was tasked with tracking a kid 14 years his junior, and did well to keep the exciting Hirving Lozano from causing too much damage. He didn't contribute much on the attacking end, but did his job on the day. 

Bruce Arena threw 21-year-old Kellyn Acosta into the Azteca cauldron and he performed like a veteran under pressure. He was calm on the ball, worked hard defensively, and showed exactly why he's so highly regarded as a player for the future. He was caught out in the build-up for Mexico's goal, but otherwise put in an extremely solid performance. 

Paul Arriola worked his socks off down the wing for the USMNT, but didn't have much impact on the proceedings aside from helping to track the runs of Jesus Gallardo down the U.S.'s right side. 

A completely selfless showing from the Hamburg striker. Wood didn't have many opportunities in front of goal and fluffed an early chance, but he ran himself into the ground both on the defensive and offensive sides of the ball. It's a wonder he was able to walk off the pitch when Jozy Altidore gave him a much-deserved rest in the 79th minute. 

It just wasn't Christian Pulisic's day. Mexico committed two, three, even four players at a time to keep him from affecting proceedings, and it worked. He wasn't able to find a rhythm and often looked isolated on the left of Bruce Arena's novel 3-4-3 formation. He was far from awful, but it just wasn't to be against Mexico. 

Came on late for Bobby Wood and threw his weight around. 

Given around 30 minutes to do his thing, Nagbe was a positive influence after coming on for Paul Arriola. Tidy in possession, inventive and a hard worker, he made a solid impact. 

Zusi barely got to breathe the Azteca air before the final whistle blew.
