With Canada leading 1-0, a Christian Pulisic corner found the head of American forward Weston McKennie. Standing on his goal-line, Borjan jumped straight up and pawed the ball way with his right hand.
The Allstate Good Hands Award, which recognizes the top save by a Canadian national team goalkeeper during international play, was chosen by fans via online voting period Dec. 9 to 16.
