Mexico x Czech Republic in the World Cup: see where to watch, game time and confirmed lineup
The teams from the Czech Republic and Mexico meet this Wednesday, June 24, in a duel for the 3rd round of Group A of the 2026 World Cup. The match is scheduled for 10 pm, Brasília time, and will take place at the emblematic Azteca Stadium, located in Mexico City, the Mexican capital.
The Czech team, which is coming off a 1-1 draw with South Africa, has just one point in the table. To continue dreaming of qualifying for the next stage of the tournament, victory is the only result that interests the Europeans. Striker Patrik Schick is the main hope for the Czech Republic to seek this unprecedented place in the knockout stage, an advance that would represent a significant milestone for the team in its history in World Cups, under the country’s current flag.
On the other hand, Mexico, one of the host countries of the World Cup and already guaranteed first place in Group A, plans to take advantage of this last round to rotate the squad. The intention is to spare important players and give other athletes opportunities. Coach Javier Aguirre may even choose goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa, one of only three players in history to participate in six editions of the World Cup.
