Young Attackers Prove They Can Make Impact During Mexico's Busy 2016

The Mexico men's national football team's match against Senegal on Wednesday night at Marlins Park was used by manager Juan Carlos Osorio to evaluate the players on the fringe of the first team and the young players coming through the system.

El Tri may not have played the sexiest match of football, but a few players were able to put their talents on display in Miami to leave a positive impression on the new Mexico boss.

The player who shined the brightest in the 2-0 victory over Senegal was 20-year-old Pachuca star Hirving Lozano. In his debut for the senior team, Lozano posed a constant threat to the Senegal back four on the left and right sides of the pitch.
