Mexico grabbed their spot in the 2010 World Cup with an emphatic 4-1 win over El Salvador at Azteca. It will be Mexico's 14th appearance at the World Cup.
An own goal put Mexico ahead at the half, but it was well deserved as they were on the attack most of the opening half. The second half saw the flair as the game got away from El Salvador late. Mexico netted three times in the final 20 minutes to break the game open and send Azteca into wild celebration. Man of the Match Cuauhtémoc Blanco was unstoppable all night long.
"I'm so happy. This is a time to celebrate," said captain Rafa Marquez, who made his return after a long injury lay-off. "This is a great team and Javier Aguirre is a great coach. We worked hard and got the job done. The credit goes to all to my teammates and to the coach. They are all amazing."
