The Mexico national football team continues to advance in the 2026 World Cup, with a streak of 2 consecutive victories. The curious brotherhood between Mexico and South Korea in the World Cup dates back to 2018.

What happened?

The relationship between the fans of Mexico and South Korea began in the 2018 World Cup in Russia, when South Korea defeated Germany 2-0 and allowed Mexico to qualify for the round of 16.
