Former LA Galaxy and Mexico goalkeeper Jorge Campos has high hopes for the United States at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
In a feature with Sports Illustrated, Campos declares that he believes the USMNT is ahead of Mexican side at present. The U.S. advanced to the Copa America Centenario semifinals, finishing fourth while Mexico was famously eliminated 7-0 by eventual champion Chile in the quarterfinals.
“The [men’s] team—I have to say it’s better than Mexico’s. Mexico is good, but [the U.S.] do more than us in the World Cup. They’ve gone to the quarterfinals. We have never done that.
