Mexico's national team has signed the perfect group stage in the 2026 World Cup, beating the Czech Republic 3-0 in the night of Ochoa. Mexico is a party, and not just because of the victory. The team of 'vasco' Aguirre has won the three group stage games without conceding a goal, and with a great sense of confidence.
What happened in the match?
Despite the many changes made in the eleven compared to Korea, the host team again left a very serious image. Without Raúl Jiménez or Fidalgo on the pitch, the Mexicans managed to dominate the match from the positional game, ending soon with the Czechs' desire. In the first part, only Visinsky, with a good cross shot, put the Czech goalkeeper in danger.

The Czech Republic, in the absence of danger in the game in the first half of the second half, had one of the clearest in a long throw-in. Coufal put it in the area and Cerv collected the second play to shoot at the goal. The shot ended up going softly into the hands of Rangel, the titular goalkeeper despite the rumors that Ochoa could start in this match.

It was so well the match for Javier Aguirre that he even made the change that the whole audience wanted. Ochoa came on to warm up and the stadium fell, but at his entrance, no one remained seated in their seat. The Mexican goalkeeper, who will turn 41 soon, could say that he has played in four World Cups, despite being called up six times. Among all those changes, Álvaro Fidalgo, the midfielder of Real Betis, came on the field.
Mexico's national team continues to impress in the 2026 World Cup, remaining unbeaten and conceding no goals in three games. With a record of 9 points, 6 goals in favor and 0 against, Mexico is the sensation of the tournament. And not just because of the victory, but also because of the way the team has played. With a cohesive team and an offensive game, Mexico has demonstrated to be a serious rival in the 2026 World Cup.
Mexico is leading the classification with 5 points of advantage over South Africa. Their next match will be against England on July 16 at the Estadio Azteca. Mexico's national team is ready to face the challenge and continue writing its history in the 2026 World Cup.
