Hirving Chucky Lozano has been a revelation during the World Cup, inspiring Mexico national team fans to turn the Seven Nation Army chant into Lozano's own personal anthem. Given that he followed up a strong season at PSV with standout performances against Germany and South Korea, it's no surprise Chucky Lozano transfer rumors are widespread.
Mexico vs Brazil will be no doubt an attractive match come the Round of 16.
El Tri and the Verde amarelha have met several times in diverse tournaments.
The Mexico vs Brazil record is currently 22 victories for La Canarinha, seven draws and 10 victories for El Tri.
Brazil is a football powerhouse and is also the only national team to have won five world cup trophies.
The great news for Mexico is that South Korea’s shock upset of Germany kept El Tri in the tournament. The bad news is that it’s Brazil lying in wait in the Round of 16. The even worse news? That right-hand side of Mexico that just got torched by Emil Forsberg and Ludwig Augustinsson now has to stop Neymar and Philippe Coutinho. The only real news of comfort for the backtracking Miguel Layun is that Marcelo might not be there.
The morning games on Wednesday at the World Cup provided all the excitement one could ask for as the defending champs crashed out with Cho Hyun-Woo stopping everything that came his way while winning over the hearts of Mexico as he helped them secure a spot in the knockout stage despite a rough outing versus Sweden.
“Coreano, hermano, ya eres mexicano” is the most resounding slogan in the streets of Russia and Mexico right now. It is Spanish for “Korean, brother, you are now Mexican.”
South Korea vs. Germany proved to be a miraculously unexpected aid for El Tri.
The Asian side beat the world champion 2-0, leaving Die Mannschaft out of the World Cup at the group stage for the first time in their history.
Mexico’s deserved 3-0 spanking at the hands of an exceptional Sweden side doesn’t matter. El Tri’s through to the Round of 16 thanks to one of the greatest upsets in the history of the World Cup. The defending champions are out, and they’ll long have nightmares of South Korea goalkeeper Cho Hyun-woo, who made six saves on the day.
El Tri fans will likely not want to watch the Mexico vs Sweden highlights from Wednesday’s World Cup Group F finale. The 3-0 defeat for the Concacaf side had few redeeming qualities for fans of Mexico. But hey, South Korea stunned Germany and El Tri advanced anyway, so who cares, right?
Mexico started the match out with the right attitude, not sitting back but not pushing too far forward. But that changed in the second half, when Sweden took the lead with three goals in 24 minutes.
Mexico is collapsing. And now has to rely on South Korea holding off the Germany to advance to the Round of 16. The World Cup has been nothing short of wild and the ending of Group F is only going to add to the drama.
Sweden has taken a 3-0 lead on Mexico and has put El Tri in a nerve-wracking situation. Their first goal came off of a mini 3 on 2 where Viktor Claesson completely whiffed on a shot that fell to the feet of Ludwig Augustinsson.
