17-year-old sensation Gilberto Mora could make World Cup history for Mexico

Seventeen-year-old midfielder Gilberto Mora could become the youngest Mexican player to appear in a World Cup. Mora just resumed playing for Tijuana after a groin injury sidelined him for two months. Mexico's youngest World Cup player is Manuel “Chaquetas” Rosas, who was 18 years, 88 days when he played in the inaugural 1930 World Cup.
