In this way, Mexico will reach its third match in Qatar 2022 with the obligation to win, facing the Saudi Arabian team this Wednesday, November 30th.

However, the score with which the team led by Tata Martino must beat the Arabs in order for them to lose their place in the round of 16 for no reason is 4-0 or with a four-goal difference. Although if Mexico does not achieve this result, they could also go to the round of 16 in the following scenarios:

Other scenarios

–If Poland beat Argentina, Mexico must beat Saudi Arabia by any score to get 4 points and place second in the group.

-If Argentina and Poland draw, Mexico must win the match against Arabia by three goals difference. This way, on goal difference, ‘Tri’ would take second place, leaving Argentina in third place.

If Argentina wins, they remain group leaders. Mexico must beat Arabia yes or yes and see the goal difference compared to Poland, to enter second place. Today Poland is +2 and Mexico -2, so the Aztec team needs to score more goals and Poland also gets a lot of them.
