Mexico completed a flawless Group A campaign with a 3-0 victory over Czechia at Estadio Azteca, securing nine points without conceding a goal. Mateo Chávez and Julián Quiñones struck in the first half before Álvaro Fidalgo added a stoppage-time debut goal, while seventeen-year-old Gilberto Mora orchestrated play between the lines. Guillermo Ochoa made an emotional sixth-World-Cup appearance in a ceremonial late substitution, likely bidding farewell to home supporters. However, Czechia’s elimination after finishing bottom with only one point raises questions whether Mexico’s perfect record reflects genuine knockout-level quality or merely exposed the limitations of a physical but blunt Czech attack.
