Match overview
West Germany and Mexico played a tense, goalless draw over 120 minutes in front of a passionate home crowd. Both teams created chances, but goalkeepers Schumacher and Larios were outstanding. In the penalty shootout, West Germany held their nerve, converting four of their spot-kicks, while Mexico missed twice. The match was marked by high tension, two red cards, and dramatic swings in momentum.
Trivia
This was the first time Mexico reached the World Cup quarter-finals, and their exit on penalties was heartbreaking for the hosts. West Germany advanced to their fourth consecutive semi-final[11][12].
