Goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa is among players suspended after they tested positive for clenbuterol; Mexican federation official blames contaminated food. Giovani Dos Santos, Javier Hernandez score twice in Gold Cup match.
Mexico's hopes for a second consecutive Gold Cup soccer title took a major hit Thursday — and it had nothing to do with what happened on the field in Charlotte, N.C., where El Tri dismantled Cuba, 5-0, on two goals each from Giovani Dos Santos and Javier Hernandez and another by Aldo De Nigris, becoming the first team to qualify for the tournament quarterfinals.
Hours before the match, Mexico suspended five players, including starting goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa, after they tested positive for the banned anabolic agent clenbuterol.
