what is the furthest mexico has ever gone in the world cup?
2017
the 1990 world cup was held in italy. cameroon, participating in their second world cup, made it to the quarter-finals after beating argentina in the opening game. no african country had ever reached the quarter-finals before. mexico was unable to compete in the 1990 world cup preliminary competition as a result of a two-year ban for age fraud at a youth championship, an incident known as los cachirules. the united states qualified for the first time since 1950. an unpleasant episode marred the south american qualifiers: during the match between brazil and chile, a firework landed close to the chilean goalkeeper roberto rojas, who then feigned injury by cutting his own face with a razor blade he had hidden in his glove. his team refused to continue the match (as they were down a goal at the time). the plot was discovered and resulted in a 12-year suspension for rojas and to chile being banned from the 1994 world cup. the final featured the same teams as in 1986. after finishing runners-up in the two previous tournaments, west germany beat argentina 1–0 in the final to record their third title. the republic of ireland also made their first appearance in the tournament, reaching the quarter-finals without winning a single game (four draws, with a penalty shoot-out win over romania in the second round). this is the furthest a team has ever advanced in the world cup without winning a game.
history of the fifa world cup
gyotoku became the coach of the bhutan national team in 2008. he led the bhutan team the semifinals of the 2008 south asian football federation cup tournament, where they lost to india (2 - 1) during stoppage time of extra time. it was the furthest the team had ever gone. in the 2008 and 2010 afc challenge cup he would lead the team to third and fourth place respectively. however, the team did not attempt to qualify for the 2010 world cup, being the only fifa member in the 2010 qualifications to withdraw. the cited reason for this was a lack of preparation of the field before their game against kuwait.
