Earns another assist
Alvarado assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 3-0 win against Czech Republic.
Analysis: Alvarado would earn an assist Wednesday as Mexico finished a perfect group stage, with the attacker finding Alvaro Fidalgo in stoppage time. This comes as his second assist, as he also earned one in their opener, now with two assists on six chances created. He has only left the field in regulation time for 10 minutes, as he appears keen to be a starter in the knockouts as well.
Provides assist in WC opener
Alvarado assisted once to go with four crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Thursday's 2-0 victory against South Africa.
Analysis: Alvarado played a major role on the right wing, delivering the cross that led to Raul Jimenez's header which doubled the lead after 67 minutes of the 2026 World Cup opening game. The Guadalajara player benefited from Mexico's dominance to accrue offensive numbers, and he won nine of his 14 ground duels during the match. He took a few set pieces given that all of Alexis Vega, Gilberto Mora and Luis Chavez were initially on the bench. While that's not guaranteed to be the case in every game, corner and free-kick duties represent an interesting boost to Alvarado's playmaking upside.
