Javier Aguirre 's team showed solidity from the start, and although they failed to reflect their dominance on the scoreboard in the first half, they constantly created threats in front of the opposing goal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
During the first 45 minutes, Mexico had more possession and control of the ball, with Alexis Vega, Julian Quinones, and Roberto Alvarado creating opportunities, albeit without success in front of goal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Suriname, for its part, were organised in defense and waited for opportunities on the counterattack, without seriously worrying Angel Malagon. The scoring didn't last until the 57th minute, when Cesar Montes headed in a corner kick to make it 1-0.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Just six minutes later, Montes scored his own double, converting a rebound inside the box from another set piece. The defender became the star of the match with two goals that reassured the national team. Mexico even celebrated a third goal by Cesar 'Chino' Huerta, but it was disallowed for offside.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
