Pulisic and Brooks were on that team IIRC.
Yes, different cast of characters, but that last bunch was the most talented American team we'd ever seen. And still lost on a glorified cow pasture a game they should have won with their eyes closed.
I have very little faith US Soccer has learned any lessons. It ain't like they had any choice but to play the kids after that debacle.
And winning the Gold Cup in Vegas is very different than heading down to Azteca with 3 points on the line.
