Raul Jimenez's second-half penalty helped Mexico overcome Costa Rica in a friendly.
Mexico ended a four-match losing streak with a come-from-behind 3-2 win over Costa Rica in a friendly on Thursday.
Raul Jimenez's penalty proved the match-winner at the Estadio Universitario de Nuevo Leon after the hosts had twice come from behind, Victor Guzman and Henry Martin cancelling out goals from Joel Campbell and Bryan Ruiz.
Campbell opened the scoring just before the half-hour mark, the forward heading in a Bryan Oviedo cross at the back post.
But the hosts responded four minutes later, a fine team move ending with Guzman wonderfully side-footing a volley into the top corner from a Jose van Rankin cross.
