The Mexican coach

However Mexico’s credit score was not flinching. Javier Aguirre’s workforce began to play, to attach, to go from left to proper patiently, regardless of the nice strain within the stadium, which was largely ‘Mexi.’ And so… till the 1-1 by Raúl Jiménez.
The third highest goalscorer within the historical past of Mexico did what he is aware of easy methods to do: reap the benefits of an important help from the Yucatecan Marcel Ruíz, one of many younger Aztec skills, to equalize the rating for a Mexico that deserved it.
Curiously, after the equalizer, Mexico lowered their depth and america dominated, reaching some extent the place they’d as much as three alternatives in the identical play. However goalkeeper Malagón prevented this and the halftime arrived with a rating of 1-1.
