Chris Richards says US team ready to fight in Gold Cup final against Mexico

Chris Richards has noticed a turnaround in the U.S. team during the CONCACAF Gold Cup, a change from both the end of coach Gregg Berhalter's tenure and the start of Mauricio Pochettino's. “We kind of like to fight, so I think that’s something that maybe has been missing from the national team over the last few camps, few months, few years,” the defender said ahead of Sunday's final against Mexico. Mexico is the defending champion and has nine titles to seven for the U.S. and one for Canada.
