Mexico World Cup History

Mexico took part in the first World Cup finals in 1930, but exited at the first round, and only at the 1970 World Cup did El Tri advance beyond the group stage for the first time. With this particular tournament held on home soil, Mexico reached the quarter-finals before crashing out to eventual runners-up Italy.

The World Cup returned to Mexico in 1986 and the hosts once more progressed to the quarter-finals. Ultimately though, Mexico were again beaten by the eventual losing finalists, this time West Germany.

Mexico were knocked out in the Round of 16 at seven consecutive editions of the World Cup from 1994-2014, before exiting at the group stage in 2022.

Mexico Memorable Moments at the World Cup

El Tri's best performances at previous tournaments have come in the two World Cups hosted exclusively in Mexico.

In 1970, all three of Mexico's group matches attracted more than 100,000 spectators at Estadio Azteca, however a goalless draw against the Soviet Union meant the hosts advanced to the quarter-finals as group runners-up, and suffered a 4-1 defeat to Italy.

The 1986 World Cup was also held in Mexico, following relocation from Colombia. This time El Tri won their group, once again with attendances in excess of 100,000 for all three of their group matches.

114,580 filled the Azteca Stadium for Mexico's last-16 clash versus Bulgaria, as the home team ran out 2-0 winners to reach the quarter-finals. A goalless draw against West Germany resulted in Mexico exiting the tournament on penalties.

In more recent years the Mexico national team have not enjoyed much success at the World Cup, with the quarter-finals proving elusive for much of the 21st century. One of El Tri's memorable World Cup matches is their last-16 encounter with the Netherlands at the 2014 event in Brazil. Giovani dos Santos gave Mexico the lead early in the second half but two late goals flipped the contest on its head as the Dutch eliminated Mexico in controversial fashion.

Best Mexico Players at the World Cup

Hugo Sánchez, widely regarded as the greatest Mexican footballer of all time, was part of the Mexico squad at the 1986 World Cup, along with the likes of Manuel Negrete & Javier Aguirre.

Long-serving captain Rafael Marquez became only the fourth man to play at five successive editions of the FIFA World Cup, doing so from 2002-2018. This feat was matched in 2022 by countryman Andrés Guardado.

Others who have featured for El Tri at the World Cup include Guillermo Ochoa, Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez, Carlos Vela, and Hirving Lozano.

Raúl Cárdenas had several stints in charge of the Mexico national football team, including during the 1970 World Cup on home soil, before Bora Milutinović led the team to the 1986 tournament also staged in Mexico.

El Tri have had a number of head coaches in recent editions of the World Cup, namely Miguel Herrera in Brazil 2014, Juan Carlos Osorio in 2018, and Gerardo Martino at Qatar 2022.
