Mexico’s match against Venezuela will be historic. Mexico will play Venezuela at the Georgia Dome and will be Mexico’s first-ever game in Atlanta. The closest Mexico has been to playing in Atlanta was the Under-23 national team’s participation in the 1996 Summer Olympics, although Mexico did not play any games in the state of Georgia.
Meanwhile, Mexico will return to San Diego for the third consecutive year when it plays Guatemala. Mexico fell to Argentina at Qualcomm Stadium 4-1 in June but knocked off Venezuela there by a 3-1 score in February 2007.
The two games will be the first action for Javier Aguirre on American soil since he returned to El Tri earlier this month. Aguirre has coached in San Diego with El Tri before, leading Mexico to a 4-0 friendly win over Albania in March 2002.
