Mexico cannot play Argentina in every game, but it can play them in some games.
Fans of El Tri, and even manager Tata Martino, have complained about the difficulty in finding top opponents for Mexico's friendly matches when not taking part in major tournaments.
But it will be a team from the game's upper echelon for El Tri on September 10, with Argentina coming to the United States to meet Mexico in San Antonio's Alamodome.
Martino, who is Argentine, coached the Albiceleste between 2014-2016, departing after falling to Chile in the 2016 Copa America Centenario.
