Mexico reached the last 16 in each of the previous seven World Cups, but they risk getting knocked out of the group stage should they fail to beat Saudi Arabia.“As a squad we never use excuses, but sometimes you need to describe the reality,” he says. “But if you see that as an excuse, well, I can tell you that we are far from making excuses because we don’t use them, and if you saw it that way, know that it wasn’t our intention,” Martino says.
