Mexico and Uruguay played out a goalless stalemate in a physical friendly showdown Saturday evening.  Physicality was the name of the game at the Estadio Corona on the night, despite both sides

Raúl Jiménez has carried the attacking burden for much of the Aguirre era and he’s been fantastic in recent times wearing Mexico’s shirt. However, when he’s not on the pitch or is contained like he was against Uruguay, the national team looks unimaginative and flat-out incapable of scoring.

The 1st half had Mexico starting out with Raul Rangel as Goalkeeper. They also had the return of Raul Jimenez and Edson Alvarez to the starting 11 after missing out the October FIFA date. In a terrible display from the home fans,

The matchup between Mexico and Uruguay will take place on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at the TSM Corona Stadium in Torreón, Coahuila. The game is scheduled to kick off at 8:00 p.m. (ET) / 7:00 p.m. local time.

Mexico had a golden opportunity to score the opener just part the hour mark. Raúl Jiménez sent in a cross that Uruguay’s defense poorly attempted to clear. The ball fell perfectly for Gilberto Mora, but his trivela shot went just wide of the post, costing the teenager his first senior goal for Mexico.

Raul Jimenez hit out at Mexico supporters after goalkeeper Tala Rangel was booed during the side’s 0-0 friendly draw with Uruguay in Torreon on Saturday. Rangel was named in the XI by coach Javier Aguirre ahead of Carlos Acevedo, who many Mexico supporters want to see as the team’s No 1.

Javier Aguirre's Tricolor and Marcelo Bielsa's Uruguay face off in a high-stakes friendly as they gear up for the 2026 World Cup, and the comparison between their leagues is astonishing.

Fortunately for Mexico, key pillars Edson Álvarez and Raúl Jiménez are back with the team after missing October’s friendlies. The veterans are the leaders and two of the most influential players of the Aguirre era, with Jiménez responsible of almost half the goals scored this year.
