It should be an interesting game because it's a relatively new team for Mexico. I just wish they played a bit of a stronger team because Mexico needs to prepare as much it can for the Confederations Cup, the rest of the World Cup qualifiers, and the 2014 World Cup itself. Nigeria are still a good team nonetheless. They are a rapidly improving team. Just like some people said also, I wish Mexico played more in other places, especially California. I feel like they don't play enough there. As long they play well, I guess we shouldn't complain too much about where they play.

Mexico and Nigeria will play at Reliant Stadium, home of NFL's Houston Texans.
I agree, but Mexico plays in Texas more because it borders Mexico a lot and there are more Mexican fans than Nigerian fans. More Mexican fans will be there to watch the game.
Mexico and Nigeria may tie because the two teams play very good and have more talent.
African champions Nigeria play very good and they are fast (not to offend the talent of the Mexican national football team).
Mexico might win, but it is going to be more difficult. Just saying. :)
@AmericaAguilas: Mexico will play against Peru at California

lol @ everyone hating on Texas.
Houston has one of the largest Nigerian populations outside of Nigeria. Im assuming thats why they are playing here THIS time. I think traveling around Houston is just easier than traveling to LAX and have to go through LA traffic. That would be my reason for playing in Houston over Los Angeles. Plus the stadium is nicer and newer than the Rose Bowl or whatever they call that thing up in Oakland. I agree with some of you who say they should play more games in Mexico though.

i agree with all my cali users here. The game should be in Cali. At least southern cali. Home Depot Center at least.. Come on there always making the games in wack@ss texas..
Nigeria is a good team but Mexico should have at least played a european squad to prepare for the game.. Portugal,etc...
