About Mexico at the World Cup
- Football history
- Mexico is one of football's true mainstays — they've qualified for almost every World Cup since 1930 and host their third tournament in 2026 (after 1970 and 1986). El Tri play with technical pace and a CONCACAF dominance only rarely interrupted by the USA. Estadio Azteca in Mexico City is the only ground to have hosted three different World Cup matches.
- Current coach
- Javier Aguirre (third spell as national team manager, appointed 2024)
- Key player to watch
- Edson Álvarez — West Ham defensive midfielder and captain, the spine of the team's press and build-out.
- Best World Cup result
- Quarter-finals — 1970 (Mexico) and 1986 (Mexico)
