Just days after head coach Diego Cocca was fired from his post, Mexico have started their 2023 Gold Cup campaign off in style.
Just one minute into their Group B opener against Honduras, El Tri snatched a lead through a superb effort from the edge of the box by Monterrey’s Luis Romo.
There was elation in the stands, and on the Mexico bench as their side took a big first step towards reigniting their summer after a poor showing in the CONCACAF Nations League.
Romo continued his tremendous start to the tournament, heading home Mexico’s second of the night 20 minutes later to set NRG stadium alight.
Is El Tri ready to turn things around and regain control in the region?
