4 Takeaways From Mexico's World Cup Roster Selection

Mexico will host the World Cup opener in Mexico City and, for the first time since 1986, that match will actually feature El Tri — expect huge, cross-border crowds whether in CDMX, LA or Dallas.
Veteran coach Javier Aguirre — known as a “fixer” — has imposed a tough camp hoping to push Mexico back to the historic “quinto/sexto partido” (quarterfinals), something they haven’t done since 1986.
The roster is a lively mix of youth and experience: 17-year-old Gilberto Mora could become Mexico’s youngest World Cup player, Memo Ochoa is on his sixth World Cup squad, and attacking options include Raúl Jiménez, Santiago Giménez and in-form Julián Quiñones.
