Mexico Home Shirt 1986

In 1986, Mexico hosted the FIFA World Cup for the second time and enjoyed one of their best-ever tournaments. Managed by Bora Milutinović, El Tri were led by stars like Hugo Sánchez, Tomás Boy, Manuel Negrete, Javier Aguirre, and goalkeeper Pablo Larios. They topped their group after defeating Belgium 2–1, drawing with Paraguay, and beating Iraq 1–0. In the Round of 16, Negrete’s spectacular scissor-kick goal helped Mexico beat Bulgaria 2–0. In the quarter-finals, they faced West Germany, drawing 0–0 before losing 4–1 on penalties. Despite the exit, Mexico’s 1986 run remains historic, their deepest World Cup performance.
