June 25, 2011 9:00:00 PM EDT
Rose Bowl — Pasadena, California
Referee: J. Aguilar
Attendance: 93420
Pablo Barrera scored two goals and Mexico. Andres Guardado and Giovani Dos Santos also scored for Mexico, which has won two consecutive Gold Cup titles and six overall.The victory puts El Tri in the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, a preview of the 2014 World Cup.
Mexico's Javier Hernandez, who led this year's Gold Cup with seven goals, was the tournament's most valuable player. Hernandez scored 20 goals for Manchester United during England's recently completed Premier League season.
The announced attendance of 93,420 was the largest for a Gold Cup game in the United States, but the crowd was decidedly in Mexico's corner.
Two of Mexico's defenders, Carlos Salcido and Rafael Marquez, also left in the first half because of injury.
