Mexico and Bolivia meet Friday night, looking to start their 2015 Copa America campaigns off on the right foot.
With their eyes set on next month’s CONCACAF Gold Cup, El Tri is leaving Javier Hernandez off the roster and bringing a fairly inexperienced squad to Chile. Outside of Rafael Marquez, who has 15 goals and 126 caps, the players on Mexico’s roster have combined for just 25 career international goals. Still, Mexico has only failed to get out of the group stage once in eight Copa America tournaments. There is plenty of talent with players like Marco Fabian and Raul Jimenez, and head coach Miguel Herrera is confident in his squad.
“This team is here to reach the final,” he said. “Without a doubt the team to beat in the competition is Chile.”
Up first is Bolivia. El Verde, ranked 89th in the world, haven’t made it past the group stage since they hosted this tournament in 1997. Their last warmup was a 5-0 shellacking at the hands of Argentina, and they will enter this match as a significant underdog.
Kick-off is at 7:30 p.m. ET on beIN Sports. Here’s how to watch online and on mobile:
