Mexico's Gold Cup performance has not been near to what was expected when the tournament started, and they have to try and save face when they face Trinidad & Tobago in the match that will put an end to Group C's activity. El Tri needs to win the match to finish first, while the Caribbean team can afford to draw the game and keep their current first place.
Mexico's first match against Cuba was a walk in the park. That game gave Herrera's men the possibility to break a seven game streak without a win, but things did not work out against their next rival, Guatemala. With a team concentrated on guarding their goal, Mexico was not able to break the deadlock, giving all their critics a chance to hit back at them. Players like Héctor Herrera, Oribe Peralta and Carlos Vela haven't shown their top game, and their coach might be thinking about shaking things up a bit in order to perform on the pitch as he imagined before the tournament.
For the "Soca Warriors", things have been a lot better. After dispatching Guatemala in style, Sheldon Bateau's brace against Cuba helped them secure their place in the knockout stage for the second Gold Cup in a row, and if they are capable of earning one point, Stephen Hart's men will be winning their group for the first time in the tournament's history. Men like veteran striker Kenwyne Jones and Cordell Cato will carry much of the team's hopes to shock the Mexicans, with their speed and through ball skills being their choice weapons to hurt El Tri's defense.
Historically, this will be the 19th game between the two sides. Mexico has won 12 matches, drawn three and lost three more, but Herrera's men have never lost against the Caribbean squad in the North American tournament. In fact, Trinidad & Tobago's last Gold Cup loss came in the 2013 editiown, with El Tri eliminating the "Soca Warriors" in the Quarter-final stage. Will this game provide Mexico the much-needed room to breathe, or will T&T win their group for the first time in the tournament's history? Don't miss this game's action with our detailed guide below!
