It was a massive result for the United States Men’s National Team on Friday night as they defeated Honduras 6-0.

Here’s a look back at all six goals from the win in the World Cup qualifying match.

1) Sebastian Lletget made the most of his World Cup qualifying debut scoring his first goal just minutes into the match. Jozy Altidore plays an initial ball into Christian Pulisic whose shot was saved, and Lletget was there to tuck it home.

2) After only scoring one goal in 2016 for the USMNT, Michael Bradley came up with a huge goal for himself with this splendid strike from outside the 18.

3) A lovely ball from Pulisic sets up Clint Dempsey for his first goal of the match. The 19-year-old Borussia Dortmund player was in fine form on Friday.

4) Pulisic starts the second half off with a goal for the USMNT, the midfielder deserved to score with his performance on the night, and once again the passing was exquisite.

5) Dempsey gets his second of the night, as Altidore and Pulisic are there with the assists again.

6) A fantastic goal to end a fantastic night for the USMNT. Dempsey records a hat-trick with this splendid free kick.

Dempsey’s huge night moves him just two goals away from tying Landon Donovan on the all-time national team leading scorer list, the former star has the top spot with 57 goals. His hat-trick was the first by any USMNT player since 2009.

After missing most of 2016 with injury, it was a welcome performance from Dempsey and one that should excite U.S and Seattle Sounder fans alike. The forward has already scored twice in three matches for the Sounders.

Friday night’s win was the largest margin of victory against Honduras ever. The U.S converted 75% of their shots on target.
