Mexico Open Campaign with Clean Sheet as Group Stage Begins
12 June 2026 — Match day two of the group stage sees two fixtures on the schedule as the tournament gradually expands into full swing.
Yesterday's Action
Mexico launched their campaign with a composed 2-0 victory over South Africa in Group A. The win puts Mexico level on three points with South Korea, who also won their opener, though Mexico hold the superior goal difference at plus two. South Africa remain without points after their opening fixture.
Today's Fixtures
Two Group A and Group B contests unfold today. South Korea face Czech Republic at 02:00 UTC, with the Koreans looking to build on their winning start. Later, at 19:00 UTC, Canada and Bosnia & Herzegovina meet in what will be the opening fixture for both sides in Group B. Neither team has played yet, leaving the group completely open.
Group Standings
Group A has taken shape after the opening round, with Mexico and South Korea both on three points but separated by goal difference. The remaining groups across the tournament remain untouched, with all teams yet to register a point or play a match. Group B will see its first movement today when Canada and Bosnia & Herzegovina kick off.
The storyline to follow: whether South Korea can maintain their position atop Group A or if Czech Republic can spoil their momentum.
