The Gold Cup 2021 started with a surprise. Trinidad and Tobago held Mexico to a goalless match in the opening game of the tournament. While El Tri tried its best to score, goalkeeper Marvin Phillip was the hero of the night with impressive saves to help his team win their first point in the group stage.
In the first half, Tata Martino’s team was the owner of the ball but they weren’t accurate in the last few meters. However, the real highlight of the first 45 minutes was the injury of Hirving Lozano. The Napoli player seemed to suffer a neck injury and he left the pitch with a deep cut in his eyebrow after accidentally colliding with the goalkeeper from the Soca Warriors.
Phillip was the MVP of the night. He saved 6 shots from Mexico, and prevented them from scoring. Jesús ‘Tecatito’ Corona and Rogelio Funes Mori had their chances, but failed to score. Here, check out the highlights from this match.
