The 2023-24 CONCACAF Nations League Finals is now complete following the 2-0 victory for the United States against Mexico in Sunday’s Final.

Goalkeeper

Matt Turner, United States – The winner of the 2023-24 CONCACAF Nations League Best Goalkeeper Award had four saves over the two matches for the U.S. and kept a clean sheet in the Final.

Defenders

Antonee Robinson, United States – Robinson was his usual active self at both ends and finished with two steals and four clearances.

Michael Hector, Jamaica – Hector was a big reason why Jamaica were seconds away from defeating the U.S. in the semifinals. The center back was immense for the Reggae Boyz and amassed seven clearances in the two games, to go along with a steal and an assist.

Cesar Montes, Mexico – No player had more clearances than Montes, who collected 12 during Mexico’s two games, while adding two steals and an assist.

Dexter Lembikisa, Jamaica – Lembikisa picked the right time to score his first goal with Jamaica with a powerful left-footed finish in the 1-0 Third-Place win versus Panama. He also had seven clearances.

Midfielders

Edson Alvarez, Mexico – Alvarez was a force in midfield for Mexico, scoring the opening goal against Panama and finishing with four shots and two steals.

Tyler Adams, United States – Adams certainly made the most of his limited minutes on the field by scoring a ‘golazo’ in the Final from 35 yards out. He also had a steal.

Weston McKennie, United States – McKennie was once again a stalwart in the U.S. midfield with an assist on the Adams goal in the Final. He finished with a shot and a steal.

Forwards

Gio Reyna, United States – Winner of the Best Player Award, Reyna supplied two assists in the 3-1 extra time win against Jamaica and then cemented the U.S. win in the Final with a goal.

Christian Pulisic, United States – Pulisic had seven shots over the course of the two matches, but it was his creative playmaking that set the table for Reyna’s goal against Mexico.

Haji Wright, United States – Wright came off the bench and made a massive impact against Jamaica by scoring twice in extra time. He also started the Final and finished with three shots and a steal.
