And so, the first objective is complete for Juan Carlos Osorio and the Mexico national team. After a 2-0 win over Jamaica, El Tri sealed their place in the quarterfinals of the Copa America Centenario. Now, Mexico will look to top Group C as they take on Venezuela at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.
Much of the work has already been done for El Tri and a draw would be enough for Mexico to clinch first place in the group. Venezuela, however, are on something of a fairy tale run. La Vinotinto opened their Copa America with a win over Jamaica and then shocked Uruguay to knock them out of the competition.
