Well, for sure that they will pass from the group stage as second, after Portugal, I mean Iran and Angola dont stand a chance, but that is it, because after that they will play against either: Argentina, ivroy Coast, Holland or serbia, no chance. For me Holland and argentina are strong candidates to win the cup. Just bad luck, unlike some other teams.\n\nThe other problem is the stburn couch on not calling some players such as blanco, Mexico is not lucky as brazil and Argentina that can have 3 good teams, they dont have a lot of options. And finnaly, after the defeat against US in the last game i lost the respect I have for them.

Maybe the 16 rounds or semi finals but not world cup. \nI think they are not experienced enough to win the world cup. Maybe over 4 years.

no, portugal will beat them and mexico are a good team also.

I think that because of the team it has, Brazil is one of the strongest candidates to win the world cup. However, the Czech Republic showed to be very strong and firm (even though they defeated the US... I am so disappointed) as well as Spain was the bomb today.  I don't think that Mexico will win. Reason being, they show strength when they play against Central American countries, but when they face a strong team, bye bye.  I would like a unusual team to win the world cup, for example the Czech Republic, Netherlands, even an African country... that would be a surprise, but oh well, let's just wait.

Since I am avid USA fan (let us not mention Iran-USA since I am in therapy to overcome the US performance in France 98) and I have lived in Mexico and seen how crappy the fans are toward the US (and it is nice the we now kick their "culos" most of the time).  I would hope that Iran kicks the living crap out of Mexico and send them to a humiliating defeat as the US did in Japan-Korea 2002.  Go Iran!  (con disculpas a los aficionados del "Tri")

This match is going to go either way but i think Iran stands a good chance.They have a strong deffence a working midfield and a sharp forwardline they play total football while Mexico is full of good players but they play individual game and so the team plays school football which make it hard to win games.

I think Mexico will win

I think the Mexican National team has a very good chance as good a chance as any. Never doubt any team out they have been to just about every World Cup and have done very well in all. So I feel they have a great chance.

Yes they are because they are best team in Mexico. They will beat any team when their players are fully healthy from all these games they have been having.

No news, it's a rumour spread by some mexicans, who can't stand the loss!\n\nCheck out fifa's official site.

Iran will definately not lose in their group.  I think that they will come out second in their group.  In my opinion, Mexico will win the group, and Iran will surprise everyone by upsetting Portugal to take the second spot and move to the second round.

i think mexico will make it far this time they have a young team and they are the team to beat in their group get ready for some surprises viva mexico

none, and for the record i don't think they deserve to be within the best 10 in the fifa ranking, i know they've won gold cups and america cups but i'm just waiting for them to play against any team from the 10 best then people will see how lousy they play.\n\npor si acaso soy mexicano y simplemente soy realista.

Mexico will qualify for the second round if:\n\na) They win against Portugal\nb) They tie against Portugal\nc) They lose against Portugal and Angola ties/loses\nd) They lose against Portugal by 1 goal, and Angola wins by 1 goal.\n\nSo chances for Mexico are very high. Angola has very limited possibilities

Please God, I hope Argentina fail to advance!\n\nIt will not happen, they are far to strong and good for that, in fact their are more likely to win the 2006 World Cup, but been an Englishman I am bitter...;-)

Never, though they have hosted it twice (1970 and 1986).  They might be the surprise team this year, especially after their performance Sunday against a solid Iranian team.  If Borgetti's injury isn't that bad, Mexico could surprise a lot of people in this tournament.

Yes they can. Of course. They do not have tough opponents at all. Winning against Trinidad, Canada, Mexico and USA is very possible . No doubt. Jamaica, El Salvador, Cuba and etc are not strong teams. If Trinidad make it, Guatemala can do it too.. Why do you think an overrated team like Mexico whose pride after 12 appearances is that once upon time they qualified to 1/4th at home, can qualify and Guatemala can not?
