Mexico will play the second and final game of their January camp in South America when they visit the Estadio Monumental in Argentina to take on River Plate.
Javier Aguirre's young side put up a solid performance in the victory over Internacional in the first game of the tour. Despite the inexperience, plenty of players stepped up and took advantage of the opportunity of representing El Tri, some for the very first time.
Over 70,000 people are expected to crowd the stands of one of the biggest stadiums in world soccer. It'll be River Plate's final tune up game before the start of the league season in Argentina, so manager Marcelo Gallardo could field a strong lineup, at least for the first half, before the substitution frenzy takes place in the second 45 minutes.
Aguirre will likely tweak his lineup to give minutes to all the players he called upon for the trip, highlighting that, beyond the result, he's looking at how his young players handle one of the most hostile environments in world soccer.
Here's how Mexico could lineup vs. River Plate.
