Mexico and Argentina tie again in another feisty friendly

Mexico and Argentina U22 teams tied again in a case of dueling set pieces in their second friendly of the FIFA break. Once again the game was filled with fouls and fights, and this time the game ended with a 1-1 score. Coach Jaime Lozano made 10 changes to the starting lineup, and it really hurt the team who unlike the more balanced game in Ciudad Juarez, were clearly dominated especially in the second half. Mexico took advantage of the altitude in Pachuca and improved in the second half but never really dominated, and the tie was a fair result that could have even flattered them.
