England

The USWNT was deservedly beaten on Monday in a result that saw La Tri qualify for the knockout rounds of the Gold Cup in first place in Group A. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/video-becky-sauerbrunn-rough-day-office-embarrassing-mistake-cost-uswnt-gold-cup-clash-mexico/blte3ddaf166576b4ce" target="_blank">A mistake from veteran Becky Sauerbrunn allowed Lizbeth Ovalle to break the deadlock</a> shortly before half time and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mayra-pelayo-sublime-20-yard-rocket-usmnt-mexico-beat-rivals-second-time-ever-gold-cup/blt597accc65a87f443" target="_blank">Mayra Pelayo put the cherry on the cake with an outstanding strike in stoppage time</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Speaking to reporters after the game, Horan said: "First off, Mexico played a really good game so we don't want to take anything away from that. But we were not on point today. We need to be better all aspects of the game. I could go into so many details but I think just across the board we need to be better."

WHAT HORAN SAID

By qualifying in second place in Group A, the USWNT can now expect a tougher Gold Cup quarter-final. Horan and her team had already secured a place in the last eight before facing Mexico but the shock loss means the U.S.'s route to the success will be trickier.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Mexico's win on Monday was just its second-ever against the USWNT and its first since 2010. Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/uswnt-incredible-80-game-unbeaten-run-23-years-ended-mexico-match-unique-canada-feat-w-gold-cup-upset/bltaad5bc2c61ad15c0" target="_blank">the U.S.'s incredible unbeaten record against CONCACAF opponents was broken, this its first loss on home soil to a team from the same confederation since 2000</a>.

DID YOU KNOW?

The USWNT will learn its Gold Cup quarter-final opponent once the group stages conclude on Wednesday night. The first knockout round will take place on March 2 and 3.
