Mexico continued its disappointing run with a 1-0 upset loss to Venezuela in Copa América. But is there a silver lining for El Tri? The 'FOX Soccer Now' crew broke it all down.

Mexico entered its Copa América contest against Venezuela in Los Angeles on Wednesday having never lost a match against that opponent in this tournament. El Tri out-shot Venezuela 17 to 10 . Yet when the final whistle sounded, the scoreboard read Venezuela 1, Mexico 0, with the only goal coming via Salomon Rondón's penalty kick in the 57th minute.

Why is Mexico waiting until the last 15 to actually activate?' Fallica believes it's just further confirmation that this Mexico team lacks the quality that past versions of El Tri did, despite many fans and even bookmakers still rating the team highly. Mexico entered this Copa América at No. 15 in FIFA World Rankings and favored by bookmakers to secure a top-two finish in Group B if not win the group outright.
