The second spot in Group B of the Copa América will be decided this Sunday. Mexico and Ecuador will face off at 9pm (Brasília time) at State Farm Stadium in Glendale. The match will be broadcast on SporTV.
The two teams have three points in the group, behind Venezuela, leader with six goals. Therefore, whoever wins advances to the quarter-finals of the competition.
The Mexicans have not been having a good Copa América. Even beating Jamaica, the team struggled to score and ended with a narrow 1-0 score.
We have it clear. 😤🇲🇽

On the other side, Ecuador arrives more motivated. The 2-1 defeat to Venezuela came after having a player sent off in the first half. Coach Félix Sánchez has some good news for the game: the return of striker Enner Valencia, who is back from suspension.
