LIVE: Mexico vs Ecuador
- 45' + 1' Ecuador push forward on what is surely the final attacking move of the first half, with Valencia setting himself up with a header down, but he slightly overdoes it and, as a result, Corona is able to rush out and collect the ball before he can get a shot away.
- 44' Once again, Ecuador push forward in numbers, with Ibarra muscling his way past Velarde on the right wing before trying to cut a low cross back towards Valencia. He's slightly off balance, however, and can only find Ayala.
- 43' Ecuador patiently work their way into the Mexico half of the pitch before Valencia receives the ball deep inside the penalty area.
