Berhalter selects second-youngest USMNT final lineup ever for Gold Cup clash with Mexico

The U.S. brings an inexperienced squad into Sunday's finale, with the only one younger having taken the field several weeks ago

Gregg Berhalter's U.S. men's national team lineup for Sunday's Gold Cup final against Mexico is the second-youngest lineup ever put forth by the U.S. in a tournament finale.

Berhalter made four changes from the semifinal win over Qatar, inserting defenders George Bello and Reggie Cannon, midfielder Eryk Williamson and forward Gyasi Zardes into the starting XI.

And, with an average age of 24 years, 236 days old, this XI is only bested by the one started in the Nations League finale against Mexico several weeks back, which started the game with an average age of 24 years, 206 days.
