The USA U17 side secured a 7-6 win against Slovakia U17 in an International Friendly on 18 August 2026.
To be fair, the context was set by recent performances on both benches. The hosts had just edged Switzerland 6-5 and Czechia 4-3, showing a propensity for high-scoring encounters, while Slovakia’s recent fixtures included a 1-4 loss to the Czech Republic and a 1-3 defeat to Switzerland.
And here's the thing, thirteen goals in one match means both defences were likely porous.
By then, the final whistle brought the contest to a close. The final scoreline of 7-6 reflected a game where attacks outweighed defence.
