Today is THE day!!!
El Tri opens the ENTIRE World Cup today against South Africa at the iconic Estadio Azteca in Mexico City!
TODAY at 2:00 PM Central on FOX & Telemundo you can also catch it on YouTubeTV.
🌟 PLAYERS TO WATCH:
-Raúl Jiménez — Mexico's veteran striker and goal threat. Had a big Premier League season with Fulham. This is HIS moment on home soil!
-Edson Álvarez — The captain. The engine. The heart of this team. Plays for Fenerbahçe in Turkey and runs the midfield.
-Gilberto Mora — Only 17 years old and about to become the YOUNGEST Mexican player EVER to appear in a World Cup. Real Madrid scouts are already watching him. 👀
-Julián Quiñones — Explosive pace on the wing. He's dangerous every time Mexico wins the ball. Don't blink!
THE LEGEND PLAYING HIS LAST WORLD CUP:
Guillermo "Memo" Ochoa — 40 years old and about to make HISTORY as only the 3rd player EVER (alongside Messi and Ronaldo!) to appear in SIX World Cups. He has already announced this is his farewell from football. Enjoy every moment of watching this icon!
