Mexico City /
Although everyone will have their calculator at hand on the day of the match between Mexico and Saudi Arabia to find out which team will qualify for the Round of 16 in the World Cup in Qatar. There is a score that practically assures Mexico the pass to the next round and that is 4-0.
Why does that score benefit him regardless of the result between Poland and Argentina? It’s basically because there would be no way both teams could beat El Tri either on points or goal difference.
–If Mexico wins 4-0… And Argentina draws, the albiceleste is eliminated because El Tri would have 4 points and a difference of +2 and the South American team would have 4 points and a difference of +1.
–If Mexico wins 4-0… And Argentina loses, the albiceleste is eliminated because the Tri would have 4 points and the South American team 3
–If Mexico wins 4-0… And Argentina wins 1-0, Poland will be eliminated because El Tri would have 4 points and a difference of +2 and Poland would have 4 points and a difference of +1.
So there would be no way for El Tri to be eliminated from Qatar in the Group Stagealthough now it is a team that has suffered from a lack of goals and that has not scored a goal in the World Cup.
