Funes Mori on Friday capitalised on poor Mexico defence to head in uncontested from close range after receiving Paulo Dybala's floating free-kick at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium in the central Argentine city, reports Xinhua news agency.
The hosts doubled their lead when Isaac Brizuela turned the ball into his own net seven minutes from the time.
The teams will meet again in Mendoza, western Argentina, on Tuesday.
