The World Cup of 2026 will be held in three countries. Canada, United States and Mexico will host the most important national team tournament in football. In this sense, the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) , begins to move his pieces for the contest. The Aztecs will defend against the FIFA the use of three stadiums: the Azteca in Mexico City, BBVA in Monterrey and the Akron Stadium in Guadalajara.
It is one of the most emotional shows. The day the ball is rolled for the first time in the tournament, is an indescribable sensation . This feeling, De Luisa wants to have it in Mexico City. The leader will try that the Estadio Azteca receives for the third time the opening whistle of a World Cup.
Clearly, none of this will be possible if they continue to be generated friction between the Mexican fans and the top leaders of FIFA . The homophobic scream is a factor that can influence the moment of designating or even remove the seats of the Cup of the World. The next matches will be crucial for the Aztec fans to show themselves in the ability to assume the organization of the tournament.
“This is the great opportunity for Concacaf member associations to have a World Cup at home and I believe that this opening of North America to Central America and the Caribbean will be fundamental, not only at the moment of the event but in the preparation. We want everyone to feel like organizers ”, concluded the leader.
