The mission was just too much for T&T, as they fell to a second defeat in Group A losing 2-1 to group winners Mexico last evening at the Hasely Crawford stadium.

T&T had few genuine chances but still showed commitment and dedication holding off the Mexicans for most of the match.

It took a burst of two late goals to give the visitors the advantage before Adasa Richardson pulled one back from the spot.

00:06over unbeaten Mexico, but also a five-goal victory.

01:39And Adán Sanchez on the score sheet.
01:41TNT still without a shot on target would finally catch the visitors napping.
