Mexico is preparing the final details for its trip to Qatar 2022. Now, El Tri clashed with Paraguay in a tough match in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium at Atlanta with a painful final score. Here are the highlights and goals of this interesting game.

The ones coached by Gerardo Martino arrived to Atlanta as the clear favorites against Paraguay. The South American squad was not able to get a ticket to Qatar 2022, but they managed to give an almost perfect match against the Concacaf squad.

Anthony Silva was the best player on the pitch with multiple saves against El Tri. Despite its efforts, Mexico was unable to open the gate and it was Derlis Gonzalez, Paraguayan forward, who scored the only goal in the game at the 50th minute that Carlos Acevedo couldn’t stop.
