Both Mexico and South Korea know that a win in Thursday's clash will guarantee their place in the round of 32 at this summer's World Cup, and could even lock up first place in Group A.
Those are the stakes when the two sides meet for the 15th time at Estadio Akron in Zapopan, with confidence running high in both camps after winning their opening fixtures. Mexico dispatched South Africa with ease, while South Korea showed its fighting spirit with a comeback victory against Czechia.
If last September's friendly encounter is any indication, Thursday's match promises plenty of action and a closely contested affair. Santiago Giménez rescued a 2–2 draw for Mexico in Nashville with a 94th-minute equalizer, and neutral fans would certainly welcome a similarly dramatic finish this time out.
Here's where you can watch the action on TV.
