Mexico’s National Under-17 Head Coach Jesus Ruvalcaba was a very satisfied man after his team’s second victory over their Trinidad and Tobago counterparts at the Ato Boldon Stadium on Tuesday night.


Coach Ruvalcaba didn’t only express his pleasure in his team’s 2-0 victory over the ‘Young Warriors’, he was also very pleased that the Caribbean team had done extremely well on the field of play.

Ruvalcaba told ‘ttproleague.com’, through an interpreter, “I like the style of Trinidad and Tobago’s football. The fact that they practice a vocation of offensive football, it was good for us. I am actually glad that we got a team who is confident enough to actually test my squad of players as we also prepare for the U-17 World Cup. Trinidad and Tobago have been great opponents in both practice matches.

The triumphant coach also explained, “Both matches against Trinidad and Tobago were very good ones, because these matches gave me the opportunity to observe my players under different conditions and to assess how well they would adapt to a different environment,” ended the Mexican national Under-17 Coach.

Defending World Champions Mexico are grouped with El Salvador, Mexico and Group A hosts country Honduras. These matches are set for the Tiburcio Carias Andino Stadium in Tegucigalpa and would run from April 4-8.
