Ecuador won against Mexico and eliminated them from the Copa. Although I have a love - hate relationship with Mexico due to the football rivalry, the Mex. team always puts a its soul into each game. I think of them as "The Germans from South of the Border" They play to the end trying to to win every game, and they never give up even when they are behind till the ref. blows whistle.
Chao "Piojo "Miguel Herrera, I always enjoyed watching your passionate antics in support of your team and country.
Ole , Ole, Ole Ecuador,
Mexico has qualified to fifteen World Cups and has qualified consecutively since 1994, making it one of six countries to do so. The Mexican national team, along with Brazil and Germany, are the only nations to make it out of the group stage over the last six World Cups. Mexico played France in the very first match of the first World Cup on 13 July 1930. Mexico's best progression in World Cups has been reaching the quarter-finals in both the1970 and 1986 World Cups, both of which were staged on Mexican soil.
Mexico is historically the most successful national team in the CONCACAF region, having won nine CONCACAF championships, including six CONCACAF Gold Cups, one North American Nations Cup and three NAFC Championships. Mexico is the only team from CONCACAF to have won an official FIFA competition, winning the 1999 FIFA Confederations Cup. Although Mexico is under the jurisdiction of CONCACAF, the national team has been regularly invited to compete in the Copa América since 1993, finishing runners-up twice – in 1993 and 2001 – and obtaining the third-place medal on three occasions.
