A timid USMNT struggled for long spells in a 2-0 loss to Mexico on Tuesday, leaving Mauricio Pochettino with more questions than answers.

A 2-0 loss to Mexico on Tuesday night served as a reminder of how much work lies in front of the U.S. men’s national team and new coach Mauricio Pochettino. Pochettino was handed his first loss in charge of the U.

Raúl Jiménez scored on a 22nd-minute free kick and set up César Huerta’s goal in the 49th as Mexico stopped a seven-game winless streak against the United States with a 2-0 victory on Tuesday night in Mauricio Pochettino’s second game as the American coach.
