Mexico 3–0 Czechia, through to the last 32

Your team delivered. Mexico 3–0 Czechia on Wednesday night in the second group match, and the Estadio CDMX crowd got exactly what they came for (2). The win sends Mexico through to the round of 32 with one group game still to play.

Ochoa's sixth World Cup, on the ground he started

Guillermo Ochoa played his sixth World Cup match at the stadium where it all began. The 40-year-old was emotional afterward. "Muitos anos passam pela cabeça, muitas histórias... minha primeira partida foi aqui, neste gol," he said, thanking teammates, the coach, and the fans for "this last moment" (2). Ochoa lifted club trophies at this same ground earlier in his career. Now he has one more World Cup memory there.

Round of 32 opponent still to come

Mexico's next opponent in the round of 32 is not yet confirmed. The match date and venue will be set once the group stage concludes (3).
