Richards, Hall, Albert, Berhalter score as US beats Chile 4-2 in friendly as tempers flare late

Mathis Albert, a 17-year-old US soccer player, scored the opening goal for the US national team in their friendly match against Chile. This victory saw the US win 4-2, with Albert surpassing Christian Pulisic as the youngest US goalscorer in history. Chile's Sebastian Berhalter opened the scoring early on, thanks to a clever dummy set up by fellow teen Julian Hall.

However, the US rebounded in the second half with Albert's decisive fourth goal in stoppage time. Throughout the match, the US team comprised mostly teenagers, with an average age of 23 years and 25 days. Defensive player Chris Richards was key in the game, scoring the decisive header in the 80th minute. Chile had the upper hand on the break, with goals from Diego Ulloa and Maximiliano Gutierrez. Despite their best efforts, the US managed to secure the win thanks to Albert's late goal.
