Defender Kente Robles, from Real Madrid, and forward Charlene Corral, from Pachuca, lead the Mexican women’s soccer team, which centered on Monday in Chicago under the leadership of Spaniard Pedro Lopez.

In the first edition of the MexTour W, the Mexicans will take on the Chicago Red Stars of the NWSL at home next Saturday, and on Tuesday the 11th they will visit the Houston Dash.

Last year, Mexico, led by Monica Vergara, suffered a major failure in the CONCACAF Championship before the Olympics and the World Cup, by being excluded from this year’s World Cup finals in Australia and New Zealand and the Olympic Games in Paris 2024, which cost her the position of coach who replaced Lopez.

With the Spaniard, Mexico drew 1-1 with Chile in October and last March won the Women’s Discovery Cup, beating Nigeria and drawing with Costa Rica and Colombia.

The duels in Chicago and Houston are part of the preparation of the Mexicans who are completing a long-term process, focusing on the 2027 World Cup and the 1928 Los Angeles Olympic Games.

With Robles at the helm of defence, with a skilful midfield and Corral leading the attack, the Mexicans will be seeking to win their first international duels away from home under the Spanish coach.

On Monday, the team did physical work in the gym at their Chicago hotel and training sessions are scheduled to begin on the field on Tuesday.
