The 2022 World Cup in Qatar is getting closer and this week the Concacaf countries that will participate in the tournament will be defined. For this reason, the Mexican National Team's match against its US counterpart will be of vital importance for the Tri as it will define the first places in the leaderboard.

At a pre-match press conference, Gerardo Tata Martino, the tri strategist, shared his perspective on the game and accepted the responsibility he bears in the face of the duel against the Americans. The match at Estadio Azteca will directly affect the national team in relation to their automatic qualification for Qatar 2022.

Martino pointed out that the confrontation against the stars and bars squad could mean the loss of the world cup, so he accepted the responsibility that lies on him.

From the High Performance Center (CAR) he faced the media and confessed that the Tri has already had important matches, such as the one against Panama, and that the sum of both would directly affect his ticket to the world championship, since if they had a negative result next Thursday, March 24, the combinations would have on hold Tri.

Yes (it's the most important game), Panama was important because it was the last of the three-game combo. Both that one, the one in Panama, and this one, I treat it like those who may be worth a World Cup.”
