Diego Cocca will meet the United States National Team, the coconut of the Mexican National Team in recent years in a friendly game outside the FIFA Date, and that could leave some clues for the duel of the semifinals of the Concacaf Nations League, a duel for which yes they will have the “European” players
After the triumph suffered against Suriname and the tie against Jamaica at the Azteca Stadium, where several players were booed, Cocca’s team faces only players from Liga MX and MLS against the United States, in Phoenix, which in theory it is the strongest test in the nascent new era of the Tri.
Why is it played outside of the FIFA Date?
The match between the United States is part of a contract of the Mexican Soccer Federation with the company Soccer United Marketing (SUM), in which it establishes an agreement of at least five games in the United States throughout 2023, and given the tight schedule, it was determined to put together the friendly without “European” players, since since it is not a FIFA Date, the clubs are not obliged to lend players.
For this reason, Cocca suffered to assemble his team, since heteams like Tigres refused to lend their Mexican soccer playersincluding Diego Lainez, since the team opens matchday 16 one day after the game.
Where and at what time to see Mexico vs. the United States?
The match is scheduled to start minutes after 8:20 p.m. at the University of Phoenix Stadium and the live broadcast will be provided by Azteca 7, Televisa, through Channel 5 and TUDN.
If for some reason you don’t have a TV nearby to watch the game, then your option is to watch the game on streaming on the TV Azteca website, as well as on VIX.

Who are the players that Mexico called?
El Tri will count on the presence of Julián Araujo, Mexican reinforcement of Barcelona, who for registration reasons cannot play with the Catalan team. Actually, despite the limitations of not calling players outside of Liga MX and MLS, El Tri put together an interesting teamcon Carlos Acevedo and Luis Malagon in the bow, in addition to Alexis Vegawho walks fine with Chivas, and Aldo Rocha, who was crying out for his call in the Martino era.
Henry Martín was absent due to injury, so Roberto De la Rosa and Edgar López, players from Pachuca and Toluca, respectively, could be the leaders in El Tri’s attack. How do you think the Mexican team will do against the United States?
