With two expelled: this was the kick of Montes that unleashed the pitched battle in Mexico vs. the United States | VIDEO

The United States prevailed against Mexico again, this time in the semifinal of the Concacaf Nations League. However, this victory would not be achieved without a controversial reaction from ‘Tri’. In the 69th minute, when the score was already 2-0 down, César Montes delivered a well-aimed kick to Folarin Bolagun.

The ‘Cachorro’ lost the ball in the hands of Bolagun, who attacked at full speed to stretch the advantage. His intentions did not last long: he received a hard foul from the Mexican defender. The Americans immediately confronted Montes, while his colleagues defended him.

In a few seconds the pitched brawl broke out. The main person affected by this battle was Weston McKennie, who ended up with a torn shirt; However, when asking for another shirt, he would leave kissing the shield of his team in a clear sign of provocation. McKennie and Montes would be ejected.
