Mexico dominate Costa Rica, book their ticket to the semifinals of the U23 CONCACAF Championship

Mexico got off to a great start and later overcame a slow first half, giving a great performance in the second half to get a 3-0 victory over Costa Rica, giving them the ticket to the U23 CONCACAF Championship. Mexico was the better team throughout the match, improving a lot from their match against the Dominican Republic to get a key victory that gives them the spot in the semifinals, a match in which one of two tickets to the upcoming Olympic Games in Tokyo will be in play. Mexico will now play the United States, who booked their ticket to the semifinals earlier, in a match that would determine who wins the group.
