Mexico loses again at Under-20 World Cup
Associated Press - 25 June 2013 13:55-04:00
GAZIANTEP, Turkey (AP) — Mexico is on the brink of an early exit from the Under-20 World Cup after losing 1-0 to Paraguay on Tuesday, while newcomer El Salvador stunned Australia 2-1.
Paraguay, which drew its opening match against Mali, made the breakthrough in the 52nd minute when substitute Arnaldo Sanabria fed Derlis Gonzalez, who scored with a superb side-footed volley.
Mexico, the CONCACAF champion and one of the tournament favorites, missed several good chances — hitting the post twice, including with a free kick from Jorge Espericueta in the final minute.
Having previously lost to Greece, Mexico is bottom of Group D.
In Group C, El Salvador improved its chances of advancing with a victory that put its first points on the board. Jose Pena scored the winner in the 40th minute.
