Match Summary

Mexico secured their place in the knockout rounds with a cagey 1-0 win over South Korea at Estadio Akron in Guadalajara. The only goal came in the 50th minute when South Korean goalkeeper Kim Seung-gyu spilled the ball after colliding with his own defender Lee Gi-hyuk, and Luis Romo hooked the loose ball into an empty net. It was not pretty, but it was enough for Mexico to top Group A with two wins from two.
