International career
Mendoza played a starting rolein Ecuador's participation in the 2009 South American Youth Championship. He had great performances for Ecuador's campaign. Against Peru he was close to saving a penalty from Reimond Manco. Mendoza kept two clean-sheets against Venezuela and Colombia. In the game against Argentina, he made an error, along with the defense, and Argentina tied the game 2–2 in the last minutes of the game. Ecuador would be eliminated from the tournament by coin toss, despite a respectable campaign.
Mendoza received a call-up to the senior team in early February 2009 for an unofficial friendly against England's U-21 team. He was an unused substitute and didn't play in Ecuador's 3–2 win.
