The Czech national team is set to face Mexico in the 2026 World Cup. Czechia will meet Mexico after 64 years.

What happened?

The Czech national team has met Mexico three times. The first match took place in 1961, when Mexico played at the stadium in Vítkovice. Adolf Scherer and Josef Kadraba scored for the Czech team.

Why is it important for Czechia?
