Jamaica stuns Mexico 3-2, closing in on the Nations League semifinals

Jamaica needs only a draw in the return leg after an own goal and three more scores handed Mexico a fifth straight match without a win.

  • Jamaica defeated Mexico 3-2 in Kingston on Saturday, moving closer to the CONCACAF Nations League semifinals and deepening pressure on Mexico's new head coach, Rafael.
  • The loss extends Mexico's winless streak under Rafael, who replaced Javier Aguirre following the team's World Cup exit against England.
  • Gallardo's 28th-minute own goal opened the scoring, followed by Renaldo Cephas in the 46th and Richard King's penalty in the 63rd, while Gilberto Mora and Qui scored late for Mexico.
  • The aggregate winner will face either the United States or Haiti in the semifinals, with the United States currently leading their own quarterfinal series 6-0.
  • Nine of the 11 Mexican starters played in a side that has not qualified for a World Cup since France 98, underscoring the roster's historical struggles.
