he takes it personally. with all the wonderful people and stories that make the game so special. for all true for. more than football on line. in. the gold cup top prize in north and central american football who will win it this year got to be counted going to win the gold cup that's the feeling in costa rica

at least they're one of 16 nations fighting for the gold come back it's not just country and. mexico have their own case of football fever but they struggle to take the next step on the international stage despite having great fans players and a strong domestically. want him to call reported on your barcelona went to mexico city to find out buckle up because we're coming with off to mexico with kick off life. here in mexico city. of mexico where literally everyone is football. people strongly with a lot of money and a national team who's proven that out of the best capable of beating the best. despite all that. you know the take the next step when it comes to world football

so why is this morning here in mexico city to find out what mexico thinks. mexico should be a world power it's a nation that's home to around a $130000000.00 people and the temple largest country in the world. football is the number one sport by far there's an incredibly successful domestic league in the guy max standout players capable of playing in the world's top leagues and a passion for football that's more than love but obsession so what's the problem. you can do in the big way that look ok. mexico is a country ripe with corruption and social disparity but there's one thing that makes people come together and put all differences aside the national team to be as they're called effective the national team has

a mexico is almost unparalleled anywhere in the world in fact it was even reported that when mexican legend the head games crime rates in the country drop. in the people that. is. just. the people the people. the most. but the mexican relationship with l.t. is not only a story of great love but also of great suffering especially in the world cup where there haunted by the curse of the dog or the 5th game which refers to mexico's inability to reach the quarter finals of the world cup something that they failed to do in the last 7 world. comes up why. we need an expert

and what a better expert empathic pardo he was one of the 1st mexicans to go abroad and really set the tone for mexican players oh and we can't forget that he was also part of the mexican 99 squad who won the confederations cup. north. america. the one on the list for most of. the most in the not glasses apposite did not blush elvis in the company little one will require when they are not glossy. mexico's ability to constantly under achieve has sparked heated debate within mexico some say the players like the discipline required to take that next step a word i keep hearing mentions is mentality.

but if you must. get it at us and. put it to us and it on the internet. as they move as on a course in the middle of the finity and the. them up it is one of those in the middle of. yes or no question on this one a. little. because we look at it in the. league max represents more than football in mexico it represents family culture passion and fun with game days being a $360.00 degree experience of mexican culture. legal am ex is also wildly successful it's one of the best leagues in the americas and even competes with the top leagues. the world in terms of money and passionate fans.

even though you. may. think. for a little while for the full. details. let's take a look inside. this is. simple of world football where some of the greats like pele and mare donna one the world cup i can't believe are standing here right now and there's no better place than to come to experience the next 2nd football passion and atmosphere then right here today when called america takes on chris is the one in the league the m.x. this place is about to pop off. but all that glitters using gold and maybe

legal next is pros are mexican football's constance. in the middle. east. as one of the fans are the pros here by easter. as you have done for the world to miss out on one been in the florida's on the phone for us women on a roll for the. phillies been criticized for keeping players from progressing to higher quality leads you to exaggerated salaries and high transfer fees.

this. is not and. you'll get up getting medical. but the plot is making tunnel so i must i said i'm also a 1000. years discuss what i want to see but with a look like i must seem a little fun with god. and so on but this is a young prospect of mexican football a part of club america's youth academy an already promising talent for the mexican national team. so we're in the mix only and we're waiting to see everything and for no reason you don't start with a lot of rumors around here and you're going to hear him play so what does he think about mexican football and moving to europe the ok for them may come on the list of

people caught in a sense you know. it's not a pleasant thing a number of the location for them may come. and we think you know madam we're going to implement the. quotas. call the number. then which is a keep. the money but the a c. ron must i list i'm here to say one must be a level in this league by you without a. lot of the. other and was viewed as one of the next european targets to follow the path of other mexicans abroad like. however recently he turned down that opportunity in europe to stay in mexico with clubs america sounds like the mentality issue everyone keeps talking about. but what else is holding mexico back

. to what i think i mean the cable t.v. up some of them in the not that of the about the us you all knew that you know what it was built with and less on the moon than nothing to most of them but house for the both of them because you have one of them that over on the other will be out there with a whole lot of sin done before the limos are going up on the pleasant sort of as well as it's no secret that mexico is a big fish in a small town ponding conky cat so much so that tournaments in the area like the gold cup believing considered. of course is he making good luck with it i'm not with. the term for an article by. christmas football morning traffic was. a lot of color from the stuff he. does as to what was and what the president of the mongols was and is a little frail scenes of deal with a little bit of luck is gone also on your. present is most of it comes as. good as one little bit but i mean they will still get one of them but they.

put the future could be bright with new coach alone i thought how much do you know and a new wave of talent if you mexico beyond the 3 just something great. but if you're . going to have been out of this. just but then and then some and so on and. so on until this summer in the southern look here is this from anything at all to get him to lock up us out of the mental part of the i mean so that both him and. i know mr rogers. was a little. they loved him so not only it's up again with them and some getting most of them so i've seen it on all reports of the year but little of his you know with a year without a. good way to make people forget because he was on the make it with a visit when the. other woman.

so what i take away with me is that there isn't just one reason why mexico hasn't been able to take that next step but change is on the horizon one thing that's never changed and will never change is the support of the mexican fans who believe that their time is now. mexico's not the region's only football crazy country the new ones are costa rica to see how the small nation consistently pulls off big performance it's going to. cost the rico. beautiful beaches and lush greenery. and great football. even costa rica is a small country with

a population of less than most big fish and they are basically stacked against them they've been able to leave their mark on the world as one of the most passionate underdog always keep the big boys honest but what is it about costa rican football and costa rican that gives them that little something extra what makes you can for buffalo special and what this costa rican football passion look like go. to the ball in costa rica is not just a sport it means something more to around 5000000 people who live here it's a deep part of the culture and was rightly very poor at the question rican goes are people's lives revolve around football. ok so the holiday today and we can't do this park near the national stadium and there's literally people playing football everywhere from what i can see right now 123-4566 games going on. just in one park

so what do people do for fun they play football amazing. people who leave work early on game days spend time with their families and friends at the stadiums and holidays have you been declared to watch the national team play. with this thing but here. is that what you're left with but this is. the number you know that isn't immune. to anything. and it's not just in their blood here in costa rica everywhere you look you see football hope they're selling shirt a turn out to get hit by a car and go see it's going on. there with all of the. books i read. the book but true that your.

feet on our. cars are going to have told ok rica is going to win the gold cup you heard it here 1st. costa ricans live their lives by the famous saying who would have either but it's more than just a saying it's an attitude it's happiness and it's their way of life just like football everywhere you find people ready to share their favorite football story kick the ball around or even sing you their team song. we're. going. to get a better idea about what football means to costa rica we need someone who lives it every day should at least covers football for a living so why is football so special here i can feel one.

a is not. the right of your. moods the being a football player in costa rica is not something to be taken lightly. so what does look like at the highest level in costa rica. top 5 football in costa rica is called. p d blue was founded in 1021 and now consists of 12 teams one of those 2 years i also probably the most recognizable and definitely the most successful. of all. who i thought were winning the league $34.00 times also won the champions cup which is the contract champions league now

and they did something ridiculous they finished 3rd at the fifo club world cup. someone who knows what football means to costa rica is veteran midfielder christian but. after starting his career he made the jump to europe before trying his hand you could talk to any major league soccer. now he's back where it all began home at supreme. specially known for its large and heated fan base. you're going to see something. goes wrong both rules. well

particularly the. i. guess the ultimate goal for most players is to represent their country on the international level bolanos has accomplished something that few players have he's represented costa rica in sri world cups 200-601-4201 extension 8. but i mean there are no one. in. the border but in the us. in order. for costa rican is the national team or last saturday for this special place in their hearts national team games are always sold out and when les and i plays everything in costa rica stops you came here for one thing if you come into it.

or know. you know you've been on the oldest all around the world but it is i will get a call i'm going up one side and the star says years and years happen and you know the things that you. say. you think we can one can or can't. seems. to work. but i wanted to let you know i or you know. or have been a producer on the we're going to. pick up out of that eye wall. or your grandmother more or. for most people costa rica burst onto the scene at the 2 dozen 14 world cup after doing in thinkable and top in what most people called the group of death with england italy. making it all the way to the quarterfinals almost more impressive than that though with the scenes from costa rica and the reaction of the

whole country. kumble be honest i was. a. bit of experience of it on our. it's part of. my single years that all. the old saying if you keep on an. enormous cargoes it will be impossible to get it as one or. you look up possibly because i really think you are trying to look isn't it that i was glad i did the looking been a busy because of it's only once a month but out of this everything something that shows how the passion for football unites all costa rica ends is the work that's being done to boost women's football.

separte says trying to set the standard for women's football in costa rica the club is trying to get more visibility in a number of ways to promote their women's team on the same social platforms as their male counterparts and recently they opened their stadium for the women's classico initially the club was unsure what the response would be the fans turned. in record numbers. these guys have been playing their drums the entire game so far that's ridiculous. separte says work is starting to pay off the fans i spoke to said that's according to what he saw me supporting both men and women who wear their colors. to the game fans stay to congratulate the players get autographs and take selfies.

as it was. just to let. you know this that. this mural was painted for international women's day campaign to give visibility to their women's team the final day was painted by the players themselves to show that without them there is no such. thing if you come with a bell ok. he was going to be a little bit on what are we seemingly sad. because i mean you know don't. you think it's almost. a form of i mean he's really sorry. and when we get us thing on forward. sound can all see that he's going to. take us . with a boy who wanted to sorry for. you know get in the little sisters and i was really

. separate he says also the boyhood club of costa rica's pride killer now but his performances at the world cup in 2014 earned him a spot at real madrid and catapulted him to national stardom when you think about football in costa rica it's impossible not to talk about a novice. one gold we must have been good actually to make that go to see where when i was young boy you break your heart out i mean i suppose they don't know i was going to pretend i didn't go dope but i got out as some go to go door to go to burger but i'm excited to see you but i'm betting that that means i need a piece of it good or not is going to be going to focus on the end will get better now it's $37.00 joe and my boys are present right. now the us is so important to costa rica that when he arrives home they almost have to shut down the airport when you complain to the one i suppose you can hold going to cuomo so you.

don't know if he was going to go. but you keep going to be honest. but i would say you went from 0 songs. or not. so maybe you lost because success on the pitch gets that something extra from their philosophy off the pitch one of happiness positivity and dreams. then listen. you know what i'm good for but look then went on the board it's going to be honest but i thought be honest comal all of us are all much better when i'm with. you because if i do that i don't think the get it if thing so i decided to be i don't know if i mean you haven't been in the hospital or i mean you are in which with the length of your growth at the way as well as we know we're not. goal much as a full study of what i'm going to send us your i'm so excited and i'm thinking about it with everyone thank you so much for being with me running for the. u.s.

and i feel i'm listening to you say that's the people on the in this world that found most economists a lot of phone calls but i want to because i'm learning more than i thought he was so i'm fortunately our time and cost and we've got has come to an end but let me tell you as soon as i got off that plane. it was so obvious that this country and football match everywhere you look there's football on t.v. series is on the streets people playing football on the pitch is literally everywhere it's insane and that's what's special about hossa rican football it's ingrained in their d.n.a. here it's who they are football runs through their veins and that's why we love costa rica and costa rican football until next time good on you though and we need to go get some plus we can copy before i really. did you know kick off is now when you cheat with the world of football. start with nigeria and squad north of mexico

with the world to read we travel the world in relief and you know how hard branches are running and i'm going to say no to stone masons and never people the culture i just got football i am chris here in. florida today. is a football pick up on you tube. it's in your. youth .
