Mexico will play against Iraq and Sweden in Girona before Qatar 2022.

The Mexican national team will play two friendly matches in preparation for the 2022 Qatar World Cup against Iraq and Sweden at Montilivi Municipal Stadium in Girona, Spain.

This was announced on Tuesday by Girona FC, which confirmed the dates and times of both matches. The Mexican national team will play against Iraq on Wednesday, November 9, at 21:00 local time (14:00 in central Mexico) and will face Sweden seven days later at 20:30 local time (13:30 in central Mexico), before making its debut in the World Cup against Poland on Tuesday, November 22.

In the group stage of the World Cup, Gerardo 'Tata' Martino's team will also play against Argentina on November 26, and against Saudi Arabia on November 30.

For these last two friendly matches, the Tri should already have its 26 players defined, with one of the biggest questions being who will make up the attacking trio, as out of the four possibilities, one will have to be left out. Raúl Jiménez, Henry Martín, Santiago Giménez, and Rogelio Funes Mori are the ones competing for those three spots.
