The Mexican national team continues to search for competitive matches in its preparation for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup. With most high-caliber nations participating in qualifiers, El Tri is looking towards club teams to play friendly games against.
El Tri seems to have found its next two opponents in two South American giants, according to a report from TUDN's, Gibran Araige.
"It's very probable that Mexico plays against River Plate and against Inter (Internacional) de Porto Alegre in January of 2025," Araige said in TUDN program, Línea de 4.
"Those are the two real possibilities that exist for now. Even the trip is already planned, it would be from Jan. 13 to Jan. 22," Araige added.
Both clubs are prestigious entities in South American soccer. Between them they've won six Copa Libertadores titles and have a rich history of domestic success in Argentina and Brazil.
