Mexico booked their passage to the World Cup last 16 with a win against Croatia on Monday—enough to claim the runners-up spot behind Brazil in Group A. The first half was a predictably tight affair, as both sides focused on stopping the other from scoring. The closest we got to a goal was this shot from Hector Herrera, which crashed against the bar:. The second half brought more of the same for starters before things opened up. Mexico thought they should have had a penalty when the ball appeared to hit the hand of Darijo Srna. And then El Tri found a breakthrough.

Mexico booked a last tie against the Netherlands after knocking Croatia out of the Fifa World Cup. The Croats, who knew a win would put them through, survived a scare when a Hector Herrera strike hit the crossbar. Ivan Perisic scored for Croatia, whose misery was compounded when Ante Rebic was sent off late on. It was an accomplished display from the North Americans, who nullified Croatia's threat before imposing their authority on the Group A game. A draw would have been enough for Mexico, but they made sure of a seventh knockout stage appearance in the last eight tournaments with a victory. In contrast, Croatia crumbled in the latter stages and have now been eliminated at the group stage in four of their last five major tournaments. Croatia playmaker Luka Modric had claimed Mexico benefited from a "great deal of luck" in their draw with hosts Brazil, but it was the Real Madrid midfielder's side who enjoyed the early fortune at the Arena Pernambuco in Recife. Following Mexican defender Paul Aguilar's last-ditch header to stop striker Mario Mandzukic nodding in, the Aztecs went up the other end and twice went close. Midfielder Herrera let fly from 25 yards and was only denied when his left-foot strike came crashing back off the crossbar, while team-mate Oribe Peralta was played through only to mis-time his effort and shoot wide.
