Mexico face Colombia on Saturday, their first friendly since the 2026 World Cup.

They enjoyed a positive tournament but went out to England in a match where they were the better side, failing to score. England later lost in the semi-finals to Argentina. According to Americayya.net, Rafael Márquez now leads the new cycle with a core similar to that seen at the World Cup, and he has a planned starting XI of Tala Rangel, Israel Reyes, Johan Vázquez, Jorge Sánchez, Jesús Gallardo, Erik Lira, Gilberto Mora, Álvaro Fidalgo, Roberto Alvarado, Hirving Lozano and Hormiga González.
