The Mexico national team plays one of its biggest games on home soil in recent memory, hosting international powerhouse Portugal on Saturday night as the Estadio Azteca reopens its doors.
It’s a landmark date for El Tri who will return to their spiritual home after three long years. Still, the rival in front poses a mighty challenge for an injury-plagued Mexico but Javier Aguirre will be looking for his available talents to step up in one of the final auditions before the start of the 2026 World Cup.
Portugal will make its 2026 debut against Mexico after cruising through the UEFA qualifiers. Roberto Martinez’s side are one of the favorites to lift the trophy in North America this summer and even without the injured Cristiano Ronaldo, the Iberian nation still has an all-star cast that will look to spoil El Tri’s homecoming.
The international friendly promises to deliver an vibrant affair. Here’s how you can watch Mexico vs. Portugal on Saturday night.
