Mexico secured a 2-0 victory against Ecuador, advancing to the quarters of the World Cup, thanks to goals scored by Julián Quiñones and Raúl Jiménez. The Mexican team demonstrated a strong performance in front of their home crowd. However, the match schedule was disrupted by a one-hour delay caused by lightning.
Consequently, the game commenced at 4:00 PM instead of the scheduled 3:00 PM local time. Before the match, FIFA initially considered eliminating hydration breaks to compensate for the lost time, but this measure was ultimately not implemented. Mexico is slated to play in the quarters on home soil at the “Azteca” stadium at 6:00 PM.
Their opponent will be the winner of the match scheduled for 6:00 PM today between England and the DR Congo.
