In March 2018, the Mexican National Team’s journey to the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia continues with U.S. Tour visits in California and Texas, where fans will see their World Cup-bound national team first-hand.

The Federación Mexicana de Fútbol (FMF), Soccer United Marketing (SUM), as well as the NFL’s San Francisco 49ers and AT&T Stadium today announced that top-ranked Mexico will return to Santa Clara’s Levi’s Stadium on Friday, March 23rd.  Four days later, the team will head to North Texas for a Tuesday, March 27th game at Arlington’s AT&T Stadium, presented by AT&T.

With the matches being played during the March FIFA window, all national teams are expected to bring their top players.
