Aguirre Faces Setback as Israel Reyes Doubtful for Mexico vs South Korea

Mexico opened the tournament with a 2‑0 win over South Africa, yet doubts lingered over its collective play and attacking sharpness. Coach Javier Aguirre now eyes a vital victory against South Korea to keep group‑lead aspirations alive.

Right‑back Israel Reyes, however, suffered a muscle strain in training and remains doubtful for the match. Aguirre will have to consider alternatives if Reyes cannot feature.
