Barrera inspires Mexico

Pablo Barrera was again in fine form for Mexico who won through to the semi-finals of the CONCACAF Gold Cup with a 2-1 win over Guatemala. West Ham winger Barrera, 24 on Monday, made both goals for team-mates Aldo De Negris and Javier Hernandez as Mexico came back from a goal down to secure a last four encounter with Honduras next week. Barrera, who has played in all his country's games in the tournament, is hoping to make his 37th international appearance in Houston on Wednesday.
