Team Overview
Eighteen-time participants and co-hosts, Mexico arrive at the 2026 World Cup with enormous expectation from their passionate fanbase. Javier Aguirre has steadied the ship after a turbulent qualifying cycle, and with Santiago Giménez leading the attack, El Tri carry genuine knockout-stage ambitions. The Azteca crowd alone is worth a goal — but so is the pressure of hosting.
