The only match I can attend is the first semifinal one which will be in DFW(Arlington) ..... and I probably won't go unless the US makes it.

edit: First set of group A matches are in DFW, but I have to work.

They are gonna have home field throughout the entire tournament. I don't think they play a game outside of the Southwestern US.

Edit:

All of their games will be in the Chicano Valley(SW US), except for the second group phase game which is in Denver. Chicago has a heavy Mexican presence as well. In the knockout rounds, they'll be playing in Cali and Phoenix... as far as they make it.
CONCACAF prepping Mexico for a long run so they can squeeze as much money out of Mexicans as possible :wow:

Can't wait to see how these untested U.S. and Mexico squads do this tourney, I think it will show how close or far they are in their player development


I think the next generation, at least for the USSF, will tell the story.

In the case of Mexico, needless to say they will be technically sound. I don't think that have ever been a problem. The question will be is "will they play focused and precise?"

I get so pissed cuz of the MX league Owners and their "Gentleman's Pact" that is severely deterring Mexico's player development,they care more about business then to allow the players to transfer to Europe to get that top flight experience, I feel the U.S. and Mexico need to find some kind of loophole around or with the Concacaf,to play in other regions more oftenly,shytting on Honduras,El Salvador and Guatemala is not gonna take you to the next level as fast as competing against the SA and Euro Teams

Do you think Mexico and US would benefit from a CONCACAF COMNEBOL merger?

Mexico would play the South Americans more but they would never qualify to the World Cup :patrice:

If they merged, that would be one federation with now double the teams, you cant just send 4 teams to the WC, they would send 8 teams overall like before merger, so now it be double the groups fighting, but now diluted by shytty Central America teams :yeshrug: I like Mexico's chances of them winning 1 of the 8 groups they would land in
