Mexico sweat on Edson Álvarez injury after Copa América victory over Jamaica
Mexico scraped out a 1-0 victory over Jamaica in their Group B opener in the Copa América in Houston on Saturday, but their joy at making a winning start was tempered by what appeared to be a potentially tournament-ending injury to captain Edson Álvarez.
Álvarez, who plays for West Ham United in England and is one the most experienced players on the Mexican team, collapsed clutching his hamstring in the 30th minute and limped off the pitch in tears.
