04:00 AM: Hello everyone and welcome to Khel Now’s LIVE COVERAGE of the Copa America Group B match between Mexico vs Ecuador. The kick-off is just a few hours away! Please wait for 30 seconds for the Live blog to load.

North American giants Mexico are in urgent need to pull off a miracle to extend their stay at the Copa America 2024. After a 1-0 win over Jamaica in their curtain raiser, Mexico were handed defeat by Venezuela in their second game. Next up, they will face off against second-placed Ecuador with a place in the knockouts at stake. Both sides are level on points, but Ecuador have a slight advantage in terms of goal difference.

Ecuador got their campaign up and running with a much-needed 3-1 win over Jamaica last week. The Tricolours bounced back to pick up three crucial points in their second game after a defeat to group leader Venezuela in their opening encounter. While La Tri are well on track to secure a place in the knockouts, they will need at least a point against Mexico to go through

Players to watch

Johan Vásquez (México)

The defender has been in top form for Mexico at the heart of their backline. Johan Vásquez’s rock-solid partnership with skipper Cesar Montes has been very beneficial for his team. The 25-year-old defender is known for his ball-winning capabilities and has dropped in good performances at the tournament so far.

He has made around 14 clearances and has won 17 duels in the last two games. Expect him to be at the top of his game in the game against Ecuador.

Moisés Caicedo (Ecuador)

Ecuador’s brightest prodigy Moisés Caicedo has not left any stone unturned at the Copa America tournament. He has been at the top of his game with his perfectly timed tackles, pinpoint passing accuracy and excellent positioning both with and without the ball. He has won the majority of his duels so far and contributed heavily at the back.
