Mexico president calls for US immigration forces to spare fans at LA soccer game
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum sent a message to US immigration forces in Los Angeles, asking for grace for fans at the Mexico vs. Dominican Republic Gold Cup soccer game at SoFi Stadium Saturday. 'We don't believe that at any soccer match there will be any [immigration] action … we call for none to be taken by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement,' Sheinbaum said in a Friday press conference. Advertisement 'Mexico will always promote peace,' she added. A now-deleted post to social media post by US Customs and Border Protection stated a promise to be 'suited and booted' at the first round of Club World Cup soccer matches this week. In response to its social media post, the CBP said it regularly provides security at big sporting events. 'US Customs and Border Protection is committed to working with our local and federal partners to ensure the FIFA Club World Cup 25 is safe for everyone involved, as we do with every major sporting event, including the Super Bowl. Our mission remains unchanged,' it told The Associated Press on Thursday.

Mexico's president calls for no ICE raids during Mexico-Dominican Republic soccer match
MEXICO CITY -- Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum urged U.S. officials on Friday not to target individuals attending a Gold Cup soccer match in Los Angeles between the Mexican national team and the Dominican Republic. Dozens of workers have been detained by federal immigration authorities in a series of raids in LA's fashion district and at Home Depot parking lots in Southern California. More than 100 people have been detained. 'We don't believe that there will be any raids if there's a soccer game,' Sheinbaum said in a news conference. 'We hope there won't be any. We call for no action from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.' Mexico is scheduled to play the Dominican Republic on Saturday night at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, in a group stage match of the Gold Cup. Usually, the Mexican national team matches attract thousands of fans whenever they play in Southern California. Their last match there was in March, when more than 50,000 fans attended a League of Nations semifinal against Canada. In the most recent measure in the administration's immigration crackdown, President Donald Trump deployed National Guard troops and Marines to the Los Angeles area after the raids sparked days of tumultuous protests throughout the city. The city's downtown has seen a variety of protests, from quiet to boisterous. Over the weekend, protesters blocked a key freeway and set cars on fire. For safety concerns, the Mexican national team decided to change hotels earlier in the week and moved from downtown to Long Beach. Sheinbaum also said that the Mexican consulates in the United States have implemented an information campaign guide for Mexicans in the event of unjust detention by immigration authorities. 'This campaign we are carrying out through the consulates will provide all the information on what to do if detained, as well as ongoing contact with families,' the Sheinbaum said.

Mauricio Pochettino Sets Bar for USA in 2026: 'Win The World Cup'
The 2026 World Cup is less than one year away and, as one of the co-hosts, the United States men's national team will face some big expectations. So, what would success look like for USMNT manager Mauricio Pochettino at next year's 48-team tournament held across Canada, Mexico, and the U.S., making it the largest edition in history? He believes this team can win it all. "I'm not selling nothing that cannot be possible," Pochettino told FOX Sports' Tom Rinaldi. "Anything is possible in football, in soccer." Pochettino has previously coached at notable European clubs like Tottenham Hotspur, Paris Saint-Germain, and Chelsea. He's led top international players like Harry Kane, Lionel Messi, and Kylian Mbappe. It was therefore a seismic move when U.S. Soccer hired him in 2023 to lead the men's team following a disappointing showing at the Copa América, also hosted in the United States. "I see this as an exciting challenge," Pochettino explained to Rinaldi about why he took this job. "It's an important opportunity to build together a legacy and make history." But it hasn't been easy for Pochettino since his arrival. Two losses in March to Panama and Canada. Two more last week ahead of the Gold Cup, which kicks off Saturday and will be the last competitive tournament before next year's big event. The Argentinian manager is trying to instill a culture into a squad that has often fallen short of expectations against top teams from around the world. "The problem here in the USA is that soccer is seen as a nice game to play," Pochettino said. "But in different countries, it's a game to compete, it's a fight … it's a sport war." Pochettino spoke with Rinaldi ahead of the USMNT's two most recent friendlies -- losses to Turkey and Switzerland. Pochettino's roster that heads into the Gold Cup is missing star players such as Christian Pulisic, who opted to miss the tournament following a long season at AC Milan. "We need to understand that soccer is a collective team, the USMNT is bigger than any name," Pochettino explained. Pulisic said earlier this week that he offered to play the two friendlies but was denied by the coaching staff. For Pochettino, he's keeping his focus on the roster he has this summer as the countdown to the World Cup truly gets underway. "I'm excited, I cannot wait," he said. "I hope tomorrow it would start." It will come soon enough, and the eyes of the U.S. – and the world – will be on him. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?
