What do European countries think of the Mexican National soccer team and Mexico's soccer in general?

Mexican football is very passionate, perhaps even more than in Europe, but it's national team hasn't really played to it's potential in the World Cup except in the 2 times they hosted the competition in 1970 and 1986.\n\nPerhaps it has to do more with style than anything else. Mexican football isn't excatly South American, which emphasises skill and individual play nor does it follow the European game of measured passing and tactical play.\n\nBeing neither here nor there, has proven to be Mexico's biggest hurdle when they face opponents in the World Cup. The team should decide excatly what type of game they want to play and stick to it. Eventually it becomes the standard from which future Mexican teams will play to.

No.  No offence to any Mexicans, but I've noticed Mexicans are die-hard fans for everything their country does--even when they do it badly.  I decided to look up their World Cup track record and although I didn't go back further than the 80s, it seems the furthest they've made it was to the qrt finals once.  Otherwise, they usually don't make it past the top 16.  To tell the truth, Mexico is a highly regarded team, but they aren't all that.  The only reason they're going to make it out of the 1st round is because Angola and Iran suck.  And even then, they tied with Angola.  Come on.  This is supposed to be ra ra Mexico Mexico.\n\nAllez Brasil!!

Simple.Not only are we hated by most nations for being the leading country,We are also pretty good in Soccer,we got by Mexico in the playoffs last World Cup.What we Americans can fix is respecting the game.It is number 1 in the world while in the USA it is pretty far down in the list.

Iran's got a very good team. However, the lack of experience was the main reason they could not capitalize on their ball possessions and shots on goal against Mexico. They should've not play defensively in their first match against Mexico\n\nI think they will play a much better soccer tomorrow against Portugal

Mexico's Club teams are generally more entertaining to watch. They have a little more flair and ball control. In the states it's more of a defensive game. Kinda boring to watch.\n\nInternationally speaking, the US and Mexico have an excellent rivalry. The games are physical and played with fantastic passion. The US cannot beat Mexico in Mexico, but the Mexicans cannot beat the US in America. It's a definite home field advantage.

the reason for the question is because USA is not good at soccer and other countries like mexico, japan, europe are!\n\nto answer your question, right now there are very good teams but the best team in the mexican league would have to be Chivas and America because they have the most championships. Right now, the best mexican team is chiapas and Pachuca

Each country has a team that dominates, for example Germany (Bayern Munich), England (Manchester United), Italy, (AC Milan), Spain (Real Madrid), Mexico (Guadalajara) Argentina (River Plate), and in Honduras (Olimpia). But in terms of international cups and prestige, it is Real Madrid, no doubt.

1. I don't care if your question is racist or not... a joke is a joke. \n2. Mexico does NOT do badly in sports. There are dozens of other countries that do way worse, so your question is not well thought out.\n3. The american dream team in basketball does not consist of our best players. All our really good players don't even participate. They are more interested in $$$. \n4. In response to some of the other answers you've received... Mexican funding plays no role whatsoever in how well their team does. It's not the government that pays for soccer, so you can't say that the reason they suck is because the mexican government puts money into education and health. Soccer in mexico is paid for by advertising and sponsors. \n5. Mexico did NOT win in 86!!! Whoever wrote that needs to get their facts straight. \n6. Yes, i usually read other people's responses before giving my own.

Mexico has a very low chance of winning.  If they make it past the group stage (which they probably will) they willmost likely have to play against holland or argentina in the round of 16.  Also, they lost Blanco.

My favorite is the US, because I'm from the US.  My favorite foreign teams are: 1. Brazil, 2. Holland, 3. Italy, 4. England.  My most hated team is Mexico because they treat our team like crap whenever we play in Mexico City (so does costa rica when we play there), and because their fans yell "Viva Osama" at the matches.

Mexico.  Their country is an ally.  We have nothing against Mexicans, only against illegal aliens.  Mexicans who immigrate here legally are fine.  Mexicans who stay in their country and play soccer are just great.  \n\nWe oppose some of the Mexican government's policies about illegal immigration, however, it is hard to blame them for them since they benefit so much from it and our country lets them get away with it.\n\n\nGo, Mexico!

I wish Mexico could win the cup since I'm Mexican but since I know they probably won't I want Germany to win it.

Mexico chokes worse than anyone (yes, including the US) in the World Cup.\n\nGoing to take a miracle for them to beat Argentina.

I would have chosen America to go as CONCACAF representative, but seeing their performance today against UNAM, Toluca has a great chance of going.  \n\nChelsea was defeated by Barca in the  quarterfinals of the Champion's League, and they have the strongest side in UEFA right now, so I think Barca will go.  \n\nI see that you have an interest in Mexican clubs, but this year as CONMEBOL goes, I don't think the three Mexican teams have a chance of winning, as Guadalajara have lost many players to the national team and the other two aren't doing so well.  Expect (again) either a Brazillian or Argentine team.  From Brazil, I think Corinthians, although having started off slowly, has the best chance.  From Argentina, Velez Sarsfeld.  River hasn't been playing well this year.\n\nIf Barca takes the Club Championship seriously, then I think they are the favorites for it.  They are playing some seriously superhuman football right now.  But that is far away from now, and the World Cup will be such a huge event that by the time it comes by, people will still be talking about the World Cup.\n\nOh, and it will take place in Japan from 10 to 17 December.
