The two rivals, both starting with defeats on the first Matchday, will now face each other. On the Jamaica, seemingly the weakest team in Group B, they suffered a predictable 1-0 loss against Mexico, although they had chances to score and posed difficulties for the Mexicans at times.
Ecuador’s team faced a more surprising outcome, as heavy favorites against Venezuela, but Valencia’s correct expulsion (despite later scoring the first goal) proved costly in a fair 2-1 victory for Venezuela. Consequently, both teams need a win to have a chance of qualifying for the final Matchday.
