The only goal of the game came deep in extra time. Miles Robinson was the scorer. Álvarez played 117 minutes, narrowly missing out on adding a second Gold Cup trophy to his cabinet.
The Ajax man played in every match for his country in the tournament. He was in the starting line-up in the three group matches, of which Mexico won two and drew one. He ws also a starter for the matches in the quarterfinals against Honduras and in the semifinals against Canada. After a short vacation, Álvarez will rejoin Ajax.
