And goalkeeper Mohammed Al Owais continued his strong presence, and came out at the right time, after a dangerous through pass by Henry Martin.
Jorge Sanchez hit the bird with a powerful shot, but Mohammed Al Owais was on time.
In the 27th minute, Orbelan Pineda followed a cross from the right front with a header that would have almost hit the net had it not been for the intervention of full-back Sultan Al-Ghanam.
Ali Al-Bulayhi was injured and left the stadium in an emergency and was replaced by his colleague, Riyad Sharahili, in the 37th minute.
The defense and goalkeeper Mohammed Al Owais were brave in the face of the Mexican attacks, so the first half ended with a goalless draw.
