USA beat Chile 4-2 in an international friendly

The United States defeated Chile 4-2 in an entertaining international friendly at Energizer Park in St. Louis.
Sebastian Berhalter opened the scoring for the hosts in the 37th minute, but Chile equalised just before half-time through Diego Ulloa.
The visitors then completed the turnaround early in the second half when Maximiliano Gutiérrez put La Roja ahead in the 48th minute.
The United States responded quickly, with Julian Hall heading home in the 50th minute to make it 2-2. Chris Richards then restored the hosts' lead in the 72nd minute before 17-year-old Mathis Albert completed the scoring deep into stoppage time.
Albert's goal was particularly notable as it made him the youngest player ever to score for the United States men's national team.
The victory continues the United States' preparations for the next phase of the national team's development under Mauricio Pochettino. The USMNT had previously beaten Peru 4-1 during the current international window.
