Liga MX News
Amid cartel-related violence in Mexico, soccer leagues suspended games. Will the situation affect the country's status as a host for the World Cup?
Chucky Lozano was supposed to be the face of San Diego FC and the Mexican national team. Now it's unclear when he'll even play soccer again.
Four high-level soccer matches were postponed Sunday after the Mexican army killed the leader of a powerful drug cartel in a town close to the World Cup host city of Guadalajara.
Leagues Cup officials are finalizing the details to have Mexico host certain matches of the upcoming edition of the tournament, sources told ESPN.
FIFA on Wednesday finalized a one-time switch to Canada from Mexico for winger Marcelo Flores, thereby making the 22-year-old eligible to be selected by coach Jesse Marsch for this summer's FIFA World Cup.
