The Tricolor warms up its engines with three fire tests
Before stepping onto the Banorte grass to debut in the 2026 World Cup, our team has a clear route. Three games that will be much more than simple friendlies. They will be exams.
The FMF has just confirmed the final schedule. First, Ghana in Puebla on May 22. Then, Australia in California on the 30th. And the closing, with everything ready, will be against Serbia.
The definitive test will be at home
The last adjustment will have a special flavor. It will be played at the legendary Nemesio Díez in Toluca on June 4. Governor Delfina Gómez did not hide her emotion during the announcement.
“We are very excited that Toluca will host the last preparation match”,
He expressed from the State Government Palace.
The most interesting thing comes now. Duilio Davino, sports director, gave the key that changes everything. This match will not be just another one.
“This match comes at a very important moment for the National Team. It will be after the announcement of the final list for the World Cup,”
Davino explained.
Translation: that Thursday in Toluca we will see the almost final team. Those who go to the World Cup will already be confirmed. It will be the general rehearsal, with the full cast and under local pressure.
Mikel Arriola, Ivar Sisniega and Íñigo Riestra were also at the presentation. Everyone agrees: these 90 minutes will be vital to refine details and build trust.
After facing powerhouses like Portugal and Belgium, now it’s time to polish what we’ve learned. The message is clear: the countdown has already begun and every minute counts.
