Keyrol Figueroa's USA were edged out 2-1 by hosts Mexico in the final of the CONCACAF U20 Championship on Sunday.

The Liverpool Academy forward was an unused substitute in the showpiece at Estadio Leon as his nation were beaten finalists.

Nimfasha Berchimas opened the scoring before the hour mark for the USA, though Mateo Levy Mendana equalised for Mexico in added time at the end of the contest.

With extra-time required, it was Diego Ochoa who provided the decisive strike in the extra half an hour to settle the contest and the trophy.

Figueroa made three appearances in the USA's run to the final, twice from the bench alongside a single start.
