Makes five clearances in defeat
Vasquez had five clearances, two tackles (one won), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-2 defeat against England. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 98th minute.
Analysis: Vasquez continued to get involved in defensive work, but his contributions were not enough for his country to avoid elimination from the competition. Over his four starts, he tallied 19 clearances, three tackles and two interceptions, helping Mexico to three clean sheets before their unbeaten streak ended in the round of 16. The Genoa captain will look to make the most of his international experience and remain a reliable defender as he prepares for the 2026/27 season.
Great display against Ecuador
Vasquez registered one shot (zero on goal) and nine clearances in Tuesday's 2-0 victory versus Ecuador.
Analysis: Vasquez made key contributions that kept the opponents' threat away as Mexico kept yet another clean sheet in the World Cup round of 32. It was his third 90-minute performance in as many matches played in the international competition, and he raised his average to 4.7 clearances per game. Other than that, he remains valuable for passes and duels won, and could occasionally step into the opposing box on attacking set pieces.
