Easy come, easy go —
Herrera has led Mexico to the last 16 after victories over Cameroon and Croatia, and a draw with hosts Brazil. It has conceded just once.

Come here, you —
Herrera is clearly a hit with his players, judging by the number of times they ran over to celebrate with the coach after Mexico scored. Defender Paul Aguilar even knocked him to the floor with an exuberant hug.

Jumping for joy —
Mexico crushed Croatia on Monday night to secure its last 16 berth, and at one point needed just one more goal to usurp Brazil into top spot in Group A on goal difference.

Hug o'clock —
Herrera celebrates one of Mexico's goals against Croatia with goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa. He later told a press conference Monday was "one of the happiest days of his life."
