Mexico's bid to host Soccer World Cup 2018

Albertyo de la Torre (President of the Mexican Football Federations)

"We want to make clear that right now there is no work with FIFA to bring the World Cup, but when FIFA looks at the CONCACAF area we don't want to say 'We want the World Cup', we want to say, 'We are ready.'"

Quality of infrastructure

Most of the stadia across Mexico do not have an appropiate quality for Soccer World Cup matches.

First 3-time host

If Mexico were to host the competition again it would become the first nation to host the finals three times.
