If the Union make the final or win the third-place game, they’ll qualify for next year’s Concacaf Champions Cup.Tai Baribo drew a yellow card for what referee Selvin Brown thought was a shove in the 40th minute, while Kai Wagner was about to take a corner kick. The player who provoked the foul, Roberto Meráz, had pretty clearly flopped, but Brown didn’t see it that way.
Uhre was so far wide that Mazatlán’s defenders had enough time to get back as Uhre cut toward the middle. But as he saw the space closing down, Uhre uncorked a beautiful chip over goalkeeper Ricardo Gutiérrez that banked in off the far post, for his Escoboza tied the game in the 59th off a well-worked free-kick play: David Colman to Ramon Árciga to Escoboza, who out-jumped Jakob Glesnes — whose foul led to the free kick in the first place — for a header.
