"Mexico are set to continue their preparations for World Cup 2026 with two testing encounters this October, as they take on Colombia and Ecuador. The Mexicans lifted their 13th Gold Cup in the summer as they beat their World Cup co-hosts, the United States of America, in the final. You may like El Tri will become the first nation to host or co-host the World Cup three times next summer, and the CONCACAF nation will be looking to vastly improve on 2022."
"The Mexicans went out in the group stage in Qatar after a disappointing three matches, and with a lack of world-class options across the squad, it could be another tough tournament again. Raul Jimenez is the only Premier League player in the selection this time, with Milan's Santiago Gimenez the other quality striker in the side who could feature. Legendary goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa won't be around for a sixth tournament, though."
"GK: Luis Malagon (Club America) GK: Raul Rangel (Chivas) GK: Carlos Moreno (Pachuca DF: Jorge Sanchez (Cruz Azul) DF: Cesar Montes (Lokomotiv Moscow) DF: Johan Vasquez (Genoa) DF: Juanjo Purata (UANL) DF: Jeses Orozco (Cruz Azul) DF: Jesss Gallardo (Toluca) DF: Rodrigo Huescas (Copenhagen) DF: Mateo Chavez (AZ) MF: Edson Alvarez (Fenerbahce) MF: Erik Lira (Cruz Azul) MF: Carlos Rodriguez (Cruz Azul) MF: Marcel Ruiz (Toluca) MF: Orbelin Pineda (AEK Athens) MF: Erick Sanchez (America)"
