Group A - Mexico

Mexico, who qualify again for the World Cup, are in prime position to perform well this year. Having not gone further than the knockout phase of the tournament since 1986, Mexico now need to regain the footballing hearts of their nation, and with a potential mouth-watering tie against the USA in the quarters, everything could go well for the Mexicans this year.
