Mexico arrive at this game on the back of the most historic result in modern Mexican soccer — a 2-0 win over Ecuador that ended a 40-year knockout drought. Quiñones opened the scoring in the 22nd minute and Jiménez added a second in the 31st. Now England, who came from behind to beat DR Congo 2-1 with a Harry Kane brace, stand between Mexico and a first ever home Quarterfinal. Mexico have conceded zero goals in four matches. England are the favorites at +123 but this game will be played in Mexico City in front of a full Mexican crowd and Aguirre’s defensive structure has been the tournament’s most impressive.

Mexico Key Players
Quiñones has been Mexico’s most dangerous attacker throughout the tournament — scoring against South Africa, Czech Republic, and opening the scoring against Ecuador in the R32. His pace on the left channel, directness, and composure in front of goal have made him one of the players of this World Cup. Against England’s right back, Quiñones will be the primary weapon for Aguirre and the player England must stop to win this game.
Jiménez scored the decisive second goal against Ecuador in the 31st minute that sealed Mexico’s historic knockout win. His movement, hold-up play, and link-up with Quiñones and the midfield runners give Mexico a clinical cutting edge when they attack. Against England’s centre-backs, Jiménez will be the focal point of every Mexico attack and the player the market will be watching in anytime scorer markets.
The veteran Rayo Vallecano forward scored in Mexico’s opening win over South Africa and brings the experience and composure of a player who has been at this level before. Aguirre may use him from the bench against England as a late impact option when defences tire — his physicality and aerial presence give Mexico a different dimension in the final 20 minutes.
