Gilberto Mora, at 17 years and 348 days, made history by becoming the youngest goalscorer for the Mexico national team. His record-breaking goal secured a 1-1 friendly draw against Colombia at the M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, USA. Luis Suarez, an attacker for Sporting, had initially put Colombia ahead. Mexico's new head coach, Rafael Márquez, who recently took over from Javier Aguirre, lauded Mora's talent. Márquez stated his ambition to see Mora join a major European club in the near future, stressing the importance of nurturing the young player's development. Mora has also shown impressive form for his club, Tijuana, contributing five goals and one assist in seven league appearances, signaling strong interest from European scouts.
