El Tri will play their fourth-ever semi-final match in FIFA Confederations Cup history, only Brazil has played more in this tournament.

Mexican fans have reasons to be proud about their team, as El Tri will return to the FIFA Confederations Cup semi-finals after 12 years.

CONCACAF's rulers came from behind to beat the hosts 2-1, with two headers by Nestor Araujo and Hirving Lozano sealing the deal for Juan Carlos Osorio's men. This comeback win cemented Mexico's reputation in this tournament, while also helping El Tri make history.

According to stats expert Mr Chip, Mexico is now the only team in this competition's history to reach the semi-finals after trailing in each and everyone of their Group Stage matches. Mexico came back twice to earn a two-all draw against Portugal, then, their 2-1 win against New Zealand saw them come from behind after a late first half goal. Today's game simply confirmed how combative the Mexicans have become under their Colombian boss.

"Congratulations, Mexico! First team to come from behind (to win or draw) in ALL of their FIFA Confederations Cup Group Stage games"
