🚨 Mexico see off Ecuador and book their place in the last 16 | OneFootball

And another team has qualified!

Mexico faced Ecuador last night in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup. 

In front of more than 80,000 spectators at the legendary Azteca, Mexico managed to secure this precious spot. 

Julian Quinones and Raul Jimenez were the two scorers, and indeed the heroes of the night.

Right at the end of the match, Piero Hincapie was shown a straight red card, crushing Ecuador’s hopes of forcing extra time.

Mexico will face either England or DR Congo on July 6.
