However, the Central American side got their second in the 56th minute, as William Troost-Ekong swept into his own goal, while trying to clear the ball from danger.
“The game plan has always been reflected, but we lacked continuity. Today we associated — we are getting back things we had lost,” the Mexico coach said after the game.

“We see great potential with Santi [Giménez], and we value him a lot. I understand he is linked to our future, but we want him in
our present, and we are happy with his performance with the National Team,” he concluded.
