The Night the U.S. Rewrote History
Take a deep dive into the historic 22-0 victory by the U.S. U-17 team, highlighting record-breaking performances and their journey toward World Cup qualification. We also cover dominant wins by Mexico and Canada in the Concacaf U-17 Championship, along with key player moves, including Christopher Cupps signing with Chicago Fire and Etsgar Cruz joining Club América.
Dominance to Open the Concacaf Championships
The United States U-17 team delivered a performance for the ages, one that will be talked about for years to come. A record-shattering 22-0 victory over the U.S. Virgin Islands marked the largest win in American soccer history, youth or senior level. This wasn’t just a victory; it was a statement.
From the opening whistle, the U.S. asserted complete dominance. Chase Adams cemented his place in the history books with an astonishing 10-goal performance, surpassing players before him. For context, in 2019, Erling Haaland made waves with a nine-goal spectacle against Honduras, while Tajikistan’s Mukhammad Nazriev currently holds the world record with 14 goals in a single match. Adams is now in elite company.
