Pregame observations
Despite its impressive victory over Germany and a win over South Korea, Mexico is in a bit of a pickle.
Out of seven teams that have won their first two World Cup matches, it is the only one that is not through to the next round of play. If it were to lose to Sweden and if Germany beats South Korea, three teams would be tied for the Group F lead with six points, with the group settled by tiebreakers that start with best goal differential.
