Despite a 3-0 loss to Sweden, Mexico qualified for the Round of 16 at the 2018 World Cup in Russia thanks to some help from an unlikely ally: South Korea. Javier Hernandez, Chucky Lozano & Juan Carlos Osorio and co. will forever be indebted to South Korea for extending Mexico's streak of consecutive knockout rounds reached. We were in Mexico City as Mexico fans celebrated with South Koreans after a dramatic last day of Group H action, as despite the aforementioned 3-0 defeat El Tri suffered against Sweden, South Korea’s 2-0 win vs Germany saved Mexico’s World Cup dreams for a few more days. Join Pat Infurna on the final stop of his adventure through Latin America for the final episode of our World Cup series, From Russia With Love.
