79′ Blanco (Mexico)
Recap
The first half was boring both team kept on exchanging possessions, shooting wide and over the goal, free-kicks that amount to nothing and above all, a goal less first half.
The only bright light in the first game is the young legs of the attacking Mexicans particularly Giovani dos Santos.
In the second half things changed, as Mexico run smoothly, attacked faster, orchestrated the offense in a rhythm and was solid on defense and constant challenges.
As a result, Mexico has won their first international win over France and they deserved this win with the way they played. Mexico has already assured themselves of a place in the next round.
Below are the goals scored:
79′ GOAL SCORED by Mexico — C. Blanco
64′ GOAL SCORED by Mexico — J. Hernandez
