Mexico – the shape of the team and its analysis:
“El Tri” won the Gold Cup last year. Still, the team lost to the representatives of the United States in the Nations League final in the spring. As for the friendly matches, there were defeats made by both Uruguay (0-4!!!) and Brazil after a 1-0 score in the struggle with Bolivia.
As for the Copa, Lozano’s wards started against another CONCACAF representative – Jamaica. And they won only due to a single goal in the second half. And then there was the South American sensation, Venezuela. It did not concede with the favourite, and Rondon converted the penalty, making it 1-0 in favour of “the Wine-Red”.
Ecuador – the shape of the team and its analysis:
“The Tricolor” is clearly planning, despite the three-point penalty, to make it to the next world championship. And the team lost only to Argentina in the autumn: the other battles brought wins and a pair of draws. There were also victories in friendly matches, but there happened the failures without scoring in the games against the strong ones, Italy and Argentina.
Speaking about the Copa itself, Enner Valencia and the company started with Venezuela. And it was the captain who let the team down with his early removal. Performing with 10 men, the team was the first to score, but lost. That result allowed the team to “tune” in to Jamaica, which was beaten – 3-1.
