Goals from Obafemi Martins in the 32nd and 52nd minutes, respectively, gave the super eagles a 2:0 lead, but Juan Carlos Cacho got the tricolores on the board in the 55th minute.
After Cacho tied it for Mexico in the 68th minute, Nigeria had a chance to win the match but Ikechukwu Uche missed a penalty kick in the 90th minute for the 2:2 final score.
The result ended the tricolores' two-game losing streak but they have not won in their last three matches.
Mexico will now head to Los Angeles, California USA to face Guatemala in a friendly scheduled for the L.A. Memorial Coliseum on Wednesday (17 October).
In another friendly on Sunday, Honduras posted a 1:0 home victory over Panama at the Estadio Tiburcio Carías Andino in Tegucigalpa.
After a scoreless first half, the crowd of 23,139 saw Walter Martínez scored the game-winner for the catrachos over the canaleros.
