Clean sheet against South Korea
Rangel recorded two saves and zero goals allowed in Thursday's 1-0 win over South Korea.
Analysis: Rangel was the Man of the Match for Mexico on Thursday as he saved the match and all three points for the team, earning both of his saves on an insane double save to hold the win. This earns the goalie his second clean sheet of the tournament after he earned one against South Africa in the opener, forced to make only four saves thus far. Mexico has now advanced to the knockouts, although Rangel will look to earn another clean sheet against Czechia on June 24.
Keeps clean sheet in WC opener
Rangel recorded two saves and allowed zero goals in Thursday's 2-0 win against South Africa.
Analysis: Rangel faced an easy challenge against an ineffective South Africa side, stopping a pair of long-range shots en route to his first clean sheet of the tournament. Despite the pre-game uncertainty due to the possibility of Guillermo Ochoa starting in Mexico's goal, Rangel ultimately got the nod as he had in the previous international friendlies, suggesting he'll remain the team's top option throughout the tournament. However, the remaining group stage matches could present a significant increase in difficulty, with the co-hosts meeting South Korea's talented offense without center-back Cesar Montes (suspension).
