Mexico could meet Ecuador in the round of 16 as Scotland exits
Mexico is awaiting its round‑of‑16 opponent, with Ecuador or Scotland the possible rivals. Scotland was knocked out after Senegal’s 5‑0 victory over Iraq pushed them into the best‑third‑place tie‑breaker, which promoted Ecuador’s standing in the group.
The shift raises the likelihood that Mexico will meet Ecuador, prompting the Mexican side to tailor its preparations for that potential clash.
