The Mexican team will have a tough obstacle in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup. There are many expectations surrounding the match against England. The renowned astrologer and tarot reader, Mhoni Vidente, offered her prediction regarding this commitment.

The English team is the biggest rival that Mexico will face. Before this match, El Tri achieved important victories against South Africa, South Korea, the Czech Republic and Ecuador. Now is the time to face one of the eight world champion teams.

"We have to win. We are going to win this Sunday," is how Mhoni Vidente began his prediction about the result of the match. The Cuban astrologer showed very little confidence, but she left some advice to the members of the El Tri coaching staff.

"What Mexico has to do is try penalties. The most likely thing is that on Sunday we are going to go to penalties that are tied 0-0 and we will go to penalties and win," he explained.

If the prediction is correct, Mexico would complete its fifth consecutive game without conceding goals in the World Cup. The legend of Raúl Rangel would become bigger and bigger in a transitional World Cup in goal.

Mexico in penalties

The Mexican team has faced two penalty shootouts in the history of the World Cups. El Tri defined a match in the quarterfinals of Mexico 1986 and a duel in the round of 16 of the United States 1994 by means of the maximum penalty.

The first precedent was against West Germany. Both teams went to penalties after regulation time ended 0-0. On penalties, the Europeans won 1-4.

The other precedent was against the Bulgarian team. The match did not go beyond a 1-1 draw. From the penalty spot, Bulgaria took the victory 1-3. In this sense, the record is negative in definitions from the eleven steps.
