40 years later, Mexico has done it again by the exact same score at the exact same historic stadium.

With the win, Mexico remains unbeaten in World Cup group games at home, going a combined 8-2-0 (W-D-L), with two wins and a draw in 1970 and 1986, and now four wins in 2026.

Even more impressively, Mexico has not lost a home game since an October 2018 friendly against Chile and has not lost a competitive home game since September 2013, a World Cup qualifier vs.

El Tri now has a massive opportunity to get to the quarterfinals for the first time since 1986.
