For a small American nation, Mexico has a big World Cup reputation. While failing to ever get past the quarter-finals, Mexico is synonymous with flair and the cause of more than a few upsets. | A total of 67 goals in 18 games brought the Mexican team through qualifying with more goals than any other team and secured second place in the CONCACAF Zone behind the United States
Jared Borgetti is one of Mexico's stars and, finding the back of the net 14 times, he was their top scorer during qualification for Germany 2006. Carlos Salcido and Francisco Fonseca, two of the team's youngsters will also bear the burden of high expectations this summer. |
