This time there was no controversy, no last minute penalty decisions and no post match protests.
Mexico sealed their record seventh Gold Cup trophy with a convincing 3-1 victory over Jamaica in front of nearly seventy thousand fans in Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field.
Mexico may have stuttered and struggled through their previous two round matches against Panama and Trinidad and Tobago, but there was no doubt over their superiority against a plucky Jamaica side featuring in their first ever Gold Cup Final.
Despite starting the match strongly, the Reggae Boyz never really troubled the Mexican defense and instead were exposed defensively for Mexico's goals.
The first came from a quickly taken free kick, which allowed a cross to find tournament star player Andres Guardado. Guardado then performed an expert volley home and give Mexico a 1-0 lead at half time.
Barely a minute into the second half and the Mexicans lead was doubled as Jesus Corona muscled his way through the Jamaica midfield and rifled a shot into the bottom corner, past the despairing dive of Thompson in the Jamaican goal.
From then on the victory was never in doubt as the Mexicans controlled the midfield comfortably and never allowed Jamaica any opportunities to break away quickly against them. Misery for the Jamaicans was compounded at 72 minutes when Oribe Peralta added a third for the Mexicans.
The third Mexican goal was as symbolic as it was decisive. For all of Jamaica's defensive organization throughout the tournament the Jamaicans were given two opportunities to clear the ball and after Helton failed to intercept a cross, the ball eventually found Peralta who finished easily to end all Jamaican hopes. The match as a contest was over.
Darren Mattocks was able to pull a goal back for Jamaica, as the Reggae Boyz rallied with ten minutes remaining. The Vancouver Whitecaps striker cut in from the left and curled a shot past Ochoa.
The comeback was never likely, however, and Mexico held out comfortably to seal their seventh title.
Miguel Herrera praised his side after the match, saying: "We found the rhythm that we wanted. We won well. I am happy for the performance of the boys, who put everything in for this triumph."
His opposite number Winfried Schaefer had no complaints, and praised the referee, after the officiating of the tournament had come under much scrutiny the previous week.
Schaefer said: "The referee today was fantastic. The best referee of the tournament. He helped CONCACAF a little bit in the newspaper."
Mexico can now look forward to a confederations cup playoff with the United States in October, but as Guardado lifted the Gold Cup high above his head he and his Mexican teammates will allow themselves some time to savor their victory after a busy summer before they start thinking ahead.
