Mexico vs England: When was the last time El Tri reached the Round of 16 in the World Cup
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
After breaking a nearly half-century drought without a victory in the knockout stage, Mexico will now aim to match its best result in the World Cup when it faces England next Sunday in the Round of 16. The Mexicans defeated Ecuador 2-0 on Tuesday, equaling their achievement from Mexico 1986, when they overcame Bulgaria. However, that was in the Round of 16, the stage before their elimination in penalties against West Germany. Prior to that, El Tri reached the quarterfinals in Mexico 1970, but at that time there were fewer teams, and winning their group in the first round was enough to advance.
