Mexico y Jamaica They face each other for the first date of the B Group of the Copa America 2024in which earlier Venezuela beat 2-1 Ecuador. They face each other at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, broadcast by DSports.
It is an area that interests Argentina because from there the quarter and semi-final matches would come out in case Scaloni’s team advances to the next phase. El Tri makes its return to the continental competition and in its debut it faces the Caribbean team, a well-known rival in the region.
Mexico began the match taking charge of its status as favorite. The group led by Jaime “Jimmy” Lozano He came out pushed by the fans ready to score the first goal of the game. The most dangerous in the attack? The Argentine nationalized Mexican, Santiago Gimenezson of former Boca, Christian “Chaco” Giménez, 23 years old.
Jamaica, a very physical and fast team, stood with a line of five defenders and three midfielders, ready to go against it.
Beyond some approximation, the first major incident for the Aztecs was disastrous: before the first half hour of play was over, their captain had to be replaced, Edson Álvarez, injured and carried to the substitute bench. The 26-year-old West Ham midfielder is one of the key pieces of the national team. His place was taken by Luis Romo.
Mexico felt the blow of Álvarez’s departure: it lost the momentum of the start, the game became very flat and they were the Reggae Boyz who seemed to be closer to scoring the first goal but ended up falling prey to their own clumsiness.
The second half began with the same tone, Jamaica more sharp and dangerous than a sleeping Mexico. In this context, a goal came for the Caribbean that ended up being disallowed due to an advanced position that could be detected thanks to the VAR. It was five minutes.
Mexico seemed to be reborn in that play because from that moment on they turned decisively on the goal defended by Jahmali Waite, goalkeeper of El Paso Locomotive, from the USL Championship, the second division of the United States, below the MLS.
Therefore, Gerardo Arteaga’s goal, a great shot from the edge of the area with all of Jamaica defending, did not surprise. It was 1-0 and relief for the Aztecs, who went from hell to paradise in a matter of minutes.
