They're building towards a Group D opener at the World Cup, held June 12 against Paraguay.
The USMNT's five-match unbeaten streak was snapped against Belgium, losing 5-2 against the No. 9-ranked team in FIFA World Rankings.
Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie opened the scoring in the 39th minute, then Belgium rattled off five unanswered goals before Derby County striker Patrick Agyemang added a consolation strike in the 87th minute.
New England Revolution goalkeeper Matt Turner featured against Belgium, marking his first international cap in nearly a year.
Will Pochettino stick with Turner or return to New York City FC's Matt Freese, his starter since the 2025 Concacaf Gold Cup?
Portugal battled Mexico to a 0-0 draw on Saturday evening at Estadio Azteca, a game that featured just three shots on target.

Nuno Mendes, Vitinha, João Neves and Gonçalo Ramos were all part of Paris Saint-Germain's 2025 UEFA Champions League-winning side. Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes and Chelsea winger Pedro Neto are other standouts.
