Mexico coach Sven-Goran Eriksson fired
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico coach Sven-Goran Eriksson is fired a day after a 3-1 loss to Honduras in World Cup qualifying.
The Mexican Football Federation announced the decision on Thursday.
Mexico has just one win in its last seven matches.
The 61-year-old Swede was hired in June to replace Mexican star Hugo Sanchez, who was fired after the country's under-23 team failed to qualify for the Olympics.
Former Manchester City manager Eriksson stirred controversy inside a country fiercely loyal to its national team when he added four naturalized citizens to the roster.
