Taking a hard look at where the player pool stands is imperative after the USMNT's recent Concacaf Nations League failure.

Mexico won for the first time ever a CONCACAF Nations League trophy after defeating Panama by a 2-1 score in the final. Mexico was finally able to win the tournament in their fourth try after a tough match against a Panama side that came in as the surprise of the tournament after they eliminated the United States in the final.

The Concacaf Nations League is not the most glamorous trophy, but for a Mexico side in need of a vibes shift, it serves a major purpose.
