Italian Soccer Serie A
Saudi Arabia 1 – 2 Mexico
95′ Salem Al Dawsari 47′ Henry Martín
. 52′ Luis Chávez
🏆👉 It is a cold shower for Mexico despite winning the FIFA World Cup Group C against Saudi Arabia on Wednesday 30 November 2022 at the Lusail National Stadium in Lusail, Qatar. Mexico are eliminated. For the first time since the 1978 edition, Mexico does not pass the group stage of a World Cup. For Saudi Arabia, the satisfaction of having found the goal against El Tri too. Mexico tried everything and with two goals in five minutes at the start of the second half toyed with the idea of doing the feat to qualify for the round of 16.
