Mexico announce March friendly against Costa Rica

Mexico have announced a second friendly for March of 2021 when they will face Costa Rica. The match will be another one in Mexico’s European tour and will take place on March 30th, but no venue has been announced. The announcement was meet with dismay by most fans as the game seems like a missed opportunity when Mexico is already set to play Costa Rica twice in 2021, when they face each other in the Concacaf Nations League Semifinal and later on the year in the World Cup qualification. Yet a very congested FIFA calendar, which has most UEFA teams playing three World Cup qualifiers during the March calendar, meant that they probably had no choice but play Costa Rica.
