El Tri had not been able to win in their last 4 matches in the World Cup, but on the third date of group C they raised their faces and beat the Saudi Arabian team with a score of 2-1, with goals from Henry Martin 52′ and Luis Gerardo Chávez 52′.
However, the goal difference was the defining factor for El Tri to be left out of the Qatar World Cup 1200.
The first half was mostly for the Tata Martino team, with the 52% of possession in the first 20 minutes, a fact that was reinforced with several attempts and shots on goal.
The Mexicans continued to insist, but they had to settle for a zero tie in the first 20 minutes.
Second half of Mexico vs. Poland
The emotion for Mexico came in the second half. In the minute 52′ Henry Martín put the first after a corner kick, after assistance from César “Cachorro” Montes.

Finally, the goal difference has been responsible for leaving Mexico out of the World Cup. Poland was at 0 and Mexico at -1.
Saudi Arabia also did the merits so that El Tri did not score the necessary goals and also scored a goal in the 90+5 that put an end to Mexican aspirations.
