Mexico end disastrous 2024 Maurice Revello tournament run with 6th place finish

Mexico closed out their worst performance in a Maurice Revello Tournament by losing the 5th/6th place match against Japan by a 3-1 score, closing out the worst performance since 2016. Manager Ricardo Cadena came into the tournament with an U-23 team (when most squads were U-21 or U-20) as a substitute to the Olympic match and proceeded to give the worst performance after 4 straight tournaments finishing 2nd or 3rd. The team had also gotten the better preparation after the Mexico vs Bolivia senior friendly was played mostly by players from this squad and where they got a 1-0 victory.
