Alan Pulido's first-half goal was all Mexico needed to beat Iceland in a friendly at Las Vegas's Sam Boyd Stadium Wednesday night.
Pulido redirected a glancing header from six yards out off LA Galaxy star Giovani Dos Santos's corner kick in the 21st minute, delivering the only goal in the 1-0 victory.
The result extended Mexico's unbeaten streak to seven (5-0-2) since its 7-0 loss to Chile in the Copa America Centenario quarterfinals, a game that remains the only loss in the 18 matches since Juan Carlos Osorio took over as manager.

Because the game occurred outside of a FIFA international fixture date, the match featured largely second-choice squads for both teams.
