World Cup 2026 co-host Mexico is beginning preparations in earnest on Saturday as its national team travels to California. El Tri is up against an Australian side in need of a strong performance in this friendly after disappointing recent warm-up showings.
Since lifting the Gold Cup trophy last July, Javier Aguirre’s Mexico team has gone unbeaten in eight friendly fixtures, with last Friday’s confident 2-0 win over Ghana demonstrating that the Mexicans appear in good shape ahead of next month’s big kick-off.
Today’s match, meanwhile, serves as the penultimate warm-up for Tony Popovic’s Socceroos before the World Cup, with a friendly against Switzerland next weekend their last run-out before their opening Group D clash against Turkey. The Aussies haven’t played since a pair of friendlies in November, and Popovic will be hoping to see a big improvement here, having seen his side crash to disappointing defeats to Colombia and Venezuela in those fixtures.
Mexico takes on Australia at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on Saturday, May 30. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. PT or 10 p.m. ET in the US and Canada. That makes it an 8 p.m. CST kickoff in Mexico, while for viewers in Australia, the game gets underway at 12 p.m. AEDT on Sunday. For football fans in the UK, it’s a 3 a.m. BST kickoff.
Striker Guillermo Martínez helped Mexico edge out Ghana for a victory in a warm-up match earlier this month.

How to watch the Mexico vs. Australia match using a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the World Cup qualifier action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. Additionally, it can be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, providing an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions to ensure you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.
