Mexico opened its World Cup campaign with a dominant 2-0 win over South Africa at Mexico City Stadium last week. Julián Quiñones quickly got things started with a goal in the ninth minute, which was followed by Raúl Jiménez's first career World Cup goal in the 67th minute after a South Africa red card. El Tri is now -160 to win Group A, a jump from the -125 number it was at before the tournament began.
Mexico's crucial match against South Korea will be its 11th World Cup match at home, but first ever in Guadalajara. Mexico advances and wins the group with a win and a South Africa win/draw. A draw would likely result in both teams advancing, though that would not be certain until later in the group stage. Can Mexico build off its opening match and make a deep run in this tournament?

Make sense? Consider this: El Tri made it out of the group stage in seven consecutive World Cups , but never made it past the Round of 16 in any of those years. In 2022, Mexico failed to make it out of the group stage, and it will look to get back to its winning ways in 2026, as it is favored to win Group A after its opening win against South Africa.
Mexico will face South Korea and the Czech Republic in its final two group games. Prior to the tournament, Jiménez was the clear favorite to lead Mexico in goals this summer at +220. Now, after his 67th minute header that found the back of the net vs. South Africa, he is -115. Quiñones, who many believe can be one of the breakout players of the tournament, has surged from +750 to 150 after his goal on Thursday.
