The US national team's latest victory over Mexico on Wednesday was a little extra special: The final score was 2-0.
The Dos a Cero will always have a special place in the hearts of USMNT supporters.
Wednesday's win in San Antonio marked the eighth time in the 23 matches played since 2000 that the USA has defeated Mexico by the now legendary scoreline (four of them came in Columbus, Ohio). The math says that nearly 35 percent of the time since 2000, the USA beats Mexico 2-0.
The only other 2-0 US win in the history of matches between the two nations? The 1991 Gold Cup semifinal.
