Would Mexico have advanced if they didn't allow that last minute goal? I'm not an expert on tiebreakers

That goal actually meant nothing. Mexico would have advanced if they scored a goal to go up 3-1 based off of more goals scored in the group stages. So 3-0 or 3-1, they move on.

So that goal wasn't a death knell, just one last kick in the nuts?


I think more frustration given how dominant El Tri had been all game long and just couldn’t get that third goal
