Mexico qualified to the quarterfinals of the 2023 U-17 CONCACAF Championship after crushing Nicaragua by a 6-0 score. They dominated the match completely and strolled to a victory against a Nicaraguan team who left a lot to be desired and were outmatched in every aspect. Mexico will now face El Salvador with the winner qualifying to the 2023 U-17 World Cup.
Mexico came out featuring their best lineup, including the return of Brandon Lomeli who was injured in their debut against Curazao and hadn’t played since. As expected, Mexico dominated play from the start although they weren’t creating chances.
