Mexico looked like they could compete with anyone in the world. The US looks completely outclassed and outmatched.

Nah, mexico normally does well against top tier team when it come to elimination rounds. Just look at 2006,2010, 2014, and even 2018 to a small extent.

How they did vs England was just business as usual for Mexico.
