Hi, I'm Giselle Cesin With The18, and this is Hablaliga MX.
Today we're going to go over five Mexican internationals in Liga MX fighting to make the World Cup squad.
1. Rafa Marquez
One of the most iconic players in Mexico history, Rafa Marquez is old and has had legal issues lately. However, Mexico might bring him along for leadership purposes alone.
2. Jonathan Gonzalez
The 18-year-old Monterrey midfielder chose Mexico over the United States. Will that decision pay off this summer?
3. Elias Hernandez
Hernandez is one of the best playmakers in Liga MX, but Mexico's Europe-based players will probably take priority.
4. Oribe Peralta
Peralta always seems to score at the exact moment Mexico needs him, but he still might not be able to beat out the Europe-based strikers for a spot.
5. Jurgen Damm
The young Tigres winger is one of the fastest players in the world, but will that be enough to get him on Mexico's World Cup squad?
