The Mexican National Team was left out of the 2026 World Cup. Hours later, a message of support, not reproach, came from the Presidency.
Claudia Sheinbaum recognized the effort of the national team. The president highlighted the role of the team and the fans during the tournament.
“Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn; the important thing is to move forward and represent Mexico with pride,” he expressed.
The pronouncement occurred on July 6, from Nezahualcóyotl. Sheinbaum stressed that what was achieved by the new generation of soccer players will remain in the memory of Mexicans.
“To each and everyone, we show that Mexico is the best host in the world, with a happy and united people. Forever, let’s go, Mexico!!”
The defeat left sadness in the stands, but also recognition. The team fought until the end and restored the enthusiasm of millions of fans.
A country as headquarters
The 2026 World Cup also strengthened Mexico’s image as a host. Full stadiums and dedicated fans were the hallmark of the tournament.
Sheinbaum closed with a message of encouragement: “What was achieved by the young people of the National Team lives in the hearts of Mexicans forever.”
