England prepares for challenging match against Mexico at Estadio Azteca

England faces Mexico at Estadio Azteca in a round of 16 matchup. This marks England's return to the site of their infamous 1986 World Cup defeat to Argentina. Manager Thomas Tuchel acknowledges the difficulties posed by the stadium's elevation and the passionate Mexican crowd, referring to them as the '12th player'. England has trained at a significantly lower altitude in Kansas City, which complicates their adaptation to the conditions. The historic significance of the venue adds pressure as England aims to overcome past defeats.
