MEXICO FANS - PLAN YOUR 2010 WORLD CUP TRIP & FOLLOW THE TEAM
Mexico coach Aguirre has been a steadying influence after a few turbulent
years, and their objective will be to progress beyond the Round of 16.
They are firmy in the spot light having drawn to play the opening match
against South Africa.
However, the team will have to draw deep in the first round when they
come up against past winners France and Uruguay, if they want to stand
a chance of making it through to the second leg.
