This summer has been very memorable for the Americans. They have played 13 games and have gone 7-5-1 overall. They were able to reach the finals of the Confederations Cup, as well as the CONCACAF Gold Cup. But their next game is truly their toughest challenge, as they will be playing in the intimidating heat, smog and altitude of Mexico City. But the Estadio Azteca, which holds 105,000 screaming fans, is not the only intimidating factor for the U.S. in this match up.

The Americans have not been able to defeat the Mexican team on their own turf. Mexico holds a 22-0-1 home record against the United States. But the Mexicans have been experiencing a tough season and are desperately seeking a win. They are currently fourth among six teams with only six points.

As of now the leaders in their group are: Costa Rica (12 points), United States (10 points), and Honduras (7 points). The top three teams will have the chance to play at the 2010 World Cup, and the fourth team will play a South American nation for a Cup berth.

"Whatever score gives us a win is good," said Mexico coach Javier Aguirre. The coach continued to say that he thinks that Mexico may have a slight advantage over the U.S. "They'll have many more problems [preparing]," Aguirre said of the United States. "The Americans have 14 players in Europe and they're not going to start training as a complete team, but it's the same for everyone."

The American team is currently training in Miami, Florida’s Barry University until they have to depart for Mexico City. "We're under no illusions that it's a big challenge ahead," said American defender Jay DeMerit. "It's just a matter of us trying to ride that wave of confidence, and knowing we've competed and played with the best now in the last couple of months. We need it to continue."

After nine losses and two tied games against the Americans, Mexico finally got its first win against the United States outside Mexico City since March 13, 1999 on Sunday nights Gold Cup Final. This was not just any win; this was an embarrassing, 5-0 win, in what was the largest soccer crowd in Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands.

The Mexico favoring crowd of 79,156 witnessed 5 goals in the second half, as the Mexicans took control and reigned over the Americans.

Two of these five goals were made possible by two young forwards, Giovani dos Santos and Carlos Vela, who in their British club teams struggle to get regular playing time.

After having some difficulties with past World Cup qualifications, Mexico won the Gold Cup and reclaimed the championship of North American, Central American and Caribbean regions, but up ahead is the qualification for the 2010 World Cup.

For Mexico, Sundays win was a sign of hope for a country that has faced many recent struggles. The criticism of the media and fans stood on the players shoulders as they earned their victory. “It gives us a lot of confidence,” dos Santos said. “This win was a huge step forward. We’ve been working very hard despite a lot of criticism. We showed pride and a lot of heart today. Fans, like the media, will now believe in the national team.”

As for the United States, it was an embarrassing loss, despite the absence of Landon Donovan and Tim Howard as well as many other regular players who are being saved for the World Cup qualifier. But on August 12th, Mexico and United States alike must bring their A-game in order to prove they deserve a spot at the World Cup in South Africa.

Overall, Team USA is 0-22-1 in Mexico, but after their loss to Costa Rica in 2001, the Americans have hope. As the first three teams in their region automatically qualify, United States sits at second place, while Mexico is at fourth.
