Mexico qualify to second round in CONCACAF U-20 Championship after crushing Aruba

Mexico qualified to the second round of the CONCACAF U-20 Championship after winning the group by defeating Aruba 10-0 in their final match of the group stage. Mexico ended tied in points with Jamaica at 13 but went through on goal difference after ending with +29 in comparison to Jamaica’s +21. While Mexico came into the game with a +9 goal advantage over Jamaica, it was almost all gone at game time because Jamaica was leading Saint Martin 8-0 (the Jamaica-Saint Martin game started 1 hour earlier). But Mexico calmly collected itself and were able to completely dominated and rush to a 6-0 lead at halftime.
