Rangel Sets Mexican World Cup Clean Sheet Record

Raúl ‘Tala’ Rangel has become the first Mexican goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet in four consecutive World Cup matches, breaking a 56‑year‑old record.

Rangel’s 347 minutes on the pitch have seen six spectacular stops, and only Spain’s Unai Simón has matched his clean‑sheet streak.

The record, previously held by Ignacio Cuate Calderón for 310 minutes, cements Rangel’s place in Mexican football history. rocore.sbs
