Mexico has a next challenge: to face the modest Jamaica for the sixth day of Group A of the League of Nations Concacaf. Although they won the previous game against their counterpart from Suriname, the Mexican fans point out that they should improve certain points in Diego Cocca’s squad.
Argentine Diego Cocca, Mexico coach, acknowledged Thursday that Suriname, 139 in the FIFA ranking, was a difficult rival and has work to do after beating it 0-2 in the Concacaf Nations League.
“Today we won against a difficult opponent and we have many conclusions to draw, but the key is that when all the games are over, we have growth and I have no doubt that it will be like that,” said the coach at a press conference.
In his first game in charge of the tri, Cocca guided Mexico to a victory over Suriname, with a goal from Johan Vásquez and an own goal from Damil Dankerlui.

“It was an interesting match, with an opponent that has speed at the highest level and required us to make good decisions, not to be left in a bad light, because the offensive transitions they have are impressive,” he said.
The strategist revealed that at halftime he talked with his players and that influenced a better performance in the second half in which they signed the victory.
