Quarterback Eric Holliday threw six touchdown passes in the come-from-behind American victory.
The United States trailed 41-30 when Holliday connected on a touchdown pass to Darrell Doucette III to narrow the deficit. After an interception by Frankie Solomon, Holliday passed to Michael Dunn for the game-winner.
