The United States picked up three points on the road in Concacaf World Cup qualifying, beating Honduras 4-1. Honduras opened the scoring in the 27th minute through Brayan Moya. Antonee Robinson subbed on at halftime and equalized in the 48th minute. In his first game with the senior squad, Ricardo Pepi headed in a DeAndre Yedlin ball in the 74th minute. Pepi assisted on Brenden Aaronson’s goal in the 85th minute and setup Sebastian Lletget’s goal in stoppage time. The win gives the USMNT five points from the September window.

US coach Gregg Berhalter made several changes to the lineup, playing George Bello, Mark McKenzie, and James Sands for the first time in qualifying and giving Pepi his debut. After falling behind, Berhalter made three changes at halftime and reset the formation. The USMNT had to adjust again in the 62nd minute with Christian Pulisic unable to continue.
