Ochoa gets perfect Azteca send-off at 40 as Mexico beat Czechs
Mexico's Guillermo Ochoa celebrates their third goal scored by Alvaro Fidalgo during their Group A match against Czech Republic on June 24, 2026 at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, Mexico.
If Wednesday's World Cup match marked the last time Guillermo Ochoa appears in Mexico colours, the 40-year-old goalkeeper could not have wished for a better send-off.
Brought on for the last 12 minutes with his team 2-0 up against the Czech Republic and cruising into the knockout phase as Group A winners, Ochoa lapped up the acclaim of fans at the Azteca stadium, the venue where he made his senior debut with Club America in 2004.
