Yeah I don't love Gonzalez & his lack of speed vs a counter-attacking team, but he probably would've at least improved the chemistry back there.

I would hope Mexico remembers last cycle when we scored 2 penalty time goals to win at Panama and get them through to the playoff. Plus, a Mexico (or US) B squad is still much better than Trinidad & Tobago, and we're also +8 on Honduras in goal differential thanks largely to our 6-0 win over them.
Also, for tonight's 5:36 game it looks like you can do a free week trial of fubo.tv if you don't get BeIn sports.
