Mexico wants to bounce back in friendly against Brazil

The potential threat of the Vinícius Jr and Rodrygo attack promises to be one of the challenges that Mexico will have to face to avoid another painful defeat against Brazilin a friendly this Saturday, at Kyle Field, in Texas (USA).

‘El Tri’ was defeated 4-0 by Uruguay on Wednesday in Denver. Jaime Lozano started the match with an alternative team, a decision questioned even by the opposing coach, Argentine Marcelo Bielsa.

“These players (who played against Uruguay) were the ones who had a little more time working with us. Now against Brazil we will see more familiar faces, which is what was planned”, said Jaime Lozano.

A similar bet, however, paid off in the 1-0 victory over weak Bolivia last Friday in Chicago.

The setback against ‘Celeste’ at a time when he is looking for replacements for medalists such as Guillermo Ochoa, Raúl Jiménez and Hirving Lozano, who were not called up, placed an additional burden on the coach in a role that historically involves suffocating pressure.
