Christian Pulisic spoke ahead of the Mexico game: "I have no regrets. Last time, we failed to qualify despite being in position. We have a very hungry team that will give everything to have a place in the World Cup. It is not something we want to repeat. I have no regrets, we have learned a lot in our careers. It's a matter of mentality now, that we are a confident group and we believe we can win every game."

"It will be a great atmosphere, I've played there before and obviously it's a difficult stadium to play in. There is a lot of history. We're going in confident and I don't think it will affect us. We have to do what we've been doing, a solid game to get a good match."

"It would mean a lot to win at the Azteca. We've beaten them the last few matches, but they don't mean anything for tomorrow. We need to play another good match, keep doing the things we did well. It will take a great match to achieve that tomorrow."

Gerardo Martino spoke before this important match: "I arrive in the same way as every member of this squad, be it the players or the coaching staff, with the full awareness that we have nine points ahead of us that could mean qualification to Qatar. There is nothing else that distracts my attention other than tomorrow's match, knowing how important it is, due to many circumstances, especially because if we win tomorrow it would almost bring us closer to a World Cup".

"I have already expressed myself at some point, when I was asked how I would like to see the Azteca, I always say that I would like to see it full of people cheering for their National Team and on our side do our job of exciting people with our performance and good result."

"We try to play soccer well, as we try to do in the same way at home and away, playing good soccer and winning by outplaying our opponents. I don't handle situations other than trying to do our job, impose our idea and be superior to the opponent, these are situations that I can handle".

"Probably yes, against Panama, the last one, it was very important, especially because it was the last combo of three games, we had an imperative need to win it, I think it was the most important game of our management. I think that this one, although it has a similar component, there is also a caveat that there are two matches behind it, but I do believe that both that one and this one are matches that, at least for us, we treat them with the players as matches that could be worth a World Cup".

The United States momentarily ties Mexico with 21 points in the overall standings; the Americans come into this match after defeating Honduras by three goals to nil.

Mexico arrives to this match after defeating Panama by the minimum, however, the team coached by Martino will leave everything to play for in these last matches in order to qualify directly to Qatar 2022.

The Mexico vs United States match will be played at the Azteca Stadium, located in Mexico City. The stadium has a capacity for 87,523 people.
