The Mexican national team will conclude its World Cup preparations with warm-up games against Ghana, Australia and Serbia, officials announced Tuesday.
Mexico plays Ghana at home on May 22 and plays Australia eight days later in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California. The team returns to Mexico and will face Serbia on June 4, at a location to be determined.
Mexico starts its World Cup campaign on June 11 against South Africa in the opening match of the tournament at Azteca Stadium in Mexico City.
“These are the ideal opponents to prepare the national team for the World Cup,” said Ivar Sisniega, president of the Mexican Football Federation.
Before those matches, Mexico will host Iceland in Querétaro on February 25 and Portugal in Mexico City on March 28, before facing Belgium in Chicago on March 31.
The match against Portugal marks the reopening of the Azteca Stadium, which has been closed since May 2024.
“We have been told that the stadium will be ready, the field will be in good condition and the stands and areas for the game will be ready,” Sisniega said. «There is no Plan B; we will play on March 28 as planned and no other scenario is being considered.»
