Cristina Torres sent in a deep cross from the left wing for Juelle Love and the ball was deflected into net by Mexico DF Kimberley Rodriguez Cubero for a 1-0 Puerto Rico lead.<\/p>\n<p>Mexico were unfazed and doubled their efforts at finding an equalizer. It would arrive in first half stoppage time via a free kick that was rocketed in by Sanchez into the top left corner of net for a 1-1 halftime scoreline.<\/p>\n<p>El Tricolor then took their first lead of the night in the 59&#8242; through Camberos, who picked up a ball at midfield and drove toward the Puerto Rico area before unleashing a right-footed shot that beat Puerto Rico GK Sydney Martinez for a 2-1 Mexico advantage.<\/p>\n<p>Despite not finding an insurance goal in the final half-hour, Mexico stayed strong on the defensive end until the final whistle to pocket the three points.<\/p>\n<p>#m\u00e9xico #puertorico #roadtowgoldcup #highlights<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd14 Subscribe to our channel, and turn on notifications: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/concacaf\/view_as=subscriber?sub_confirmation=1 <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcbb You can also visit our website and enjoy our exclusive content: https:\/\/www.concacaf.com\/ <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcf1 Follow us on our social networks:<br \/>\nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/concacaf<br \/>\nTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/GoldCup<br \/>\nFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/goldcup\/<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WXpuQXGalSk\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Disfruta los mejores momentos de la victoria de M\u00e9xico 2-1 sobre Puerto Rico en el Estadio Azteca \ud83e\udd33 Strikes from Maria Sanchez and Scarlett Camberos helped Mexico rally from an&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":24511,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24510","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-soccer-world-wide"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24510","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=24510"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24510\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/24511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=24510"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=24510"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playinsoccer.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=24510"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
