The crowd has arrived! Several fans have sneaked onto the field, arriving with several players looking for photos or signatures. Security has arrived and proceeds to remove anyone other than the players and coaching staff from the field.
What a sight! A great move orchestrated by Jeremy Márquez. The youngster cautiously entered the box, looking to cause a lot of damage. He then passed the ball to Jiménez, but the forward couldn’t control the ball and it ended up in the goalkeeper’s hands. Five minutes of added time followed.
Time passes and the game reaches its final moments. Little by little, time is running out, and the referee is attentive, trying to prevent any play from escalating. It’s almost over.
Turkey makes another substitution, leaving Yildiz out of the game. The player doesn’t hesitate for a second to burn all his calories in search of the equalizer. The Turks close with everything, looking to level the score.
Another substitution by Aguirre, Mexico continues to move its pieces. Marcel Ruíz leaves the game, and Jeremy Márquez enters that position, looking to strengthen that area and close things out.
They’re fighting! All the players are engaged in shoving and arguing. Israel Reyes manages to push some of his players away and tries to prevent the tension from escalating in the match. What a match.
Two new changes for Turkey: the opposing squad brings on Denis Gül and Ege Tiknaz to create more danger. Kaan Ayhan and Kerem Aktürkoglu are replaced after creating as much damage as possible up front.
Let’s create more! Israel Reyes was looking for a good play after threading a pass looking for Raúl Jiménez inside the box, but the play was called for offside, and a good opportunity was missed.
Two changes for Mexico: Ángel Sepúlveda and Julián Quiñones come off to applause and cheers. Santiago Giménez and Raúl Jimenez come on for the remaining minutes, looking for more goals.
These minutes have been very hectic, with both teams playing rather hotly and failing to reach the opposing goal. The entire game takes place in the midfield, with no chance of creating any danger.
Incredible miss! It was a great collective play, the ball reached Gallardo, who managed to send a great cross into the box where the originator of the play appeared. César Huerta managed to shoot powerfully, but the ball went slightly wide.
Türkiye makes another change, looking to level the score in the second half. Orkun Kökçü comes on looking to create more danger, while İsmail Yüksek comes off after giving his all.
Three changes to Mexico’s squad for this match. Erik Lira, César Huerta and Roberto Alvarado are the players who enter the game, Edson Álvarez, Alexis Vega and Orbelín Pineda leave the game.
Nothing! A good team move, the ball eventually reaches Marcel, who recenters the ball well. Then Alexis Vega arrives with a powerful header looking for the second, but the goalkeeper saves the ball.
What a great start! After a high-speed run by Julián Quiñones, the player manages to reach the box and sends a great cross towards the goal, looking for a shot. Sepúlveda makes his presence felt, but the goalkeeper anticipates him.
It can’t be! Julián Quiñones stretches the ball out looking to open the scoring for Mexico, but the forward overextends the ball and ends up reaching the visitors’ goal with no chance.
Mustafa looks to create damage on goal, but it is Israel Reyes who manages to deflect that shot. Little by little, the ball takes shape, although both teams fight for it with an eye to what is coming in this game.
Jorge Sánchez mistakenly prevents Mustafa from passing in search of reaching the Mexican area and creating danger inside Luis Malagón’s area, the referee stops the action and prevents the ball from continuing its course.
The game is in full swing, the ball is moving, and the final forty-five minutes are already underway. Turkey makes a substitution; Mustafa Eskihellaç comes on for the second half, leaving the match after Yasin Özcan left the pitch with all his might.
Halftime! The first half is over, the scoreboard in favor of the Tricolor after a great goal from Orbelin Pineda. The teams go to the break to regroup and search for new ideas.
The match is heated! After a heavy challenge on a Mexican, emotions flare between the teams. It was Demiral on Sepúlveda who was involved in this previous foul, but it doesn’t escalate further.
Goal, goal, goal, goal for Mexico! The first goal of the match has arrived! After a collective play, the ball reaches Orbelín Pineda, the player turns around and shoots the ball with his left foot and manages to open the scoring.
Wow! What a play Türkiye pulled off. It was a powerful left-footed shot orchestrated by Kahveci that ended up flying straight into the stands. Türkiye continues to get there fairly easily, Mexico is still not comfortable.
What a great one! After Edson Álvarez makes a run to the goal line, the ball is sent into the box, and Julián Quiñones appears and attempts to score the first goal with a powerful header, but the ball goes wide.
It was close! It was Yildiz who was looking to score the first goal. The Turk fired a powerful shot in search of Luis Malagón’s goal, but the shot went wide without creating any danger.
The game continues and little by little Mexico regains confidence, however it cannot manage to shoot dangerously to go for that goal that would open the scoring, it needs to keep the ball away from Malagón’s goal, who has had multiple chances.
The match is stopped! A clash of heads erupts between Montes and Müldür. After the Mexican won the round, the Turk appeared and they ended up colliding. Let’s hope both are okay and can continue.
The defense is multiplying with everything, Türkiye gradually gains more ground, the Mexicans get the ball out as best they can, trying to prevent the ball from entering under the three posts protected by Luis Malagón.
Good one. Türkiye were on the attack again, but it was César Montes who managed to anticipate the attack in stunning fashion, deflecting the ball with a sweep and preventing them from creating any danger in his team’s penalty area.
It was close! Mexico couldn’t rest, and now it was Yüksuk who went for a tremendous shot to open the scoring, a good shot that he took, although the ball went too far and failed to do any damage.
The match went back and forth, with Türkiye continuing to attack, although Mexico, with Sepúlveda and Quiñones, began to generate damage and look for opportunities in the opponent’s half, leaving Aguirre’s team with a lot to work on.
Türkiye is coming on with great intensity, gradually gaining more ground, Mexico is unable to find a way to distance them, and more plays are being orchestrated in the area near Malagón.
It was a mess! Julián Quiñones came in with a lot of intensity, looking to create danger, but after several cuts and looking for space, Türkiye ended up taking the ball away from him and missed a good opportunity.
That’s it! Edson Álvarez made a great save. He prevented the ball from reaching his own area with a powerful shot, thus thwarting the danger that was starting to build up in Malagón’s goal.

Tomorrow’s game is about adjusting situations. I hope not to make mistakes, to play intensely, and to look for players for the Gold Cup, for the first match on June 14th. That’s the goal.”
“We’re preparing for a World Cup. The Gold Cup is in the mix. We’ll try to win it. Obviously, we’re favorites, we should be based on our track record. In that sense, I’m looking for the best players for the World Cup. We’re on the right track.”
“I hope not to make a mistake in choosing the players (…) I’m working on it, looking for them to have mental strength and be the best players possible. That’s my job (…) I think we have about 10 now; we’re halfway there in terms of choosing players. There are some proven players.”
“I insist on conveying to my players the greatest feeling that Mexican soccer can have: a World Cup at home. I do everything I can to instill in my players what a World Cup at home means; it’s a fantastic celebration; soccer is a national holiday. I’m working on it with the players, making them understand the importance of a World Cup at home for the Mexican people and for us.”
