Mexico 0 - 0 Angola

Angola caused a shock by holding Mexico to a goalless draw, despite playing the last 11 minutes with 10 men.


Mexico can be blamed for their bad performance.
Mexico enjoyed all the best chances, but a combination of poor finishing and the acrobatics of Angola goalkeeper Joao Ricardo kept them out.

Andre Macanga was sent off on 79 minutes after handling the ball and being shown a second yellow card.
But Mexico could not take any advantage of it.
