A victory over Costa Rica has seen Mexico move top of the CONCACAF Hexagonal. On Tuesday, El Tri travel to Port of Spain to take on Trinidad and Tobago.
Things are looking up for Mexico. Before Friday’s game against Costa Rica, head coach Juan Carlos Osorio sounded a note of caution, only to see his side win comfortably against a disappointing Ticos side. Chicharito opened the scoring in the seventh minute before Nestor Araujo doubled the lead at the stroke of halftime.
Mexico are riding a wave of productivity in World Cup qualifiers. In warming up for their victory over Costa Rica, El Tri had previously beat the United States in Columbus, Ohio and earned a draw in Panama City.
