Team head coach Miguel Herrera has assured that there will be new giants as the three most powerful countries in the region are still vying to qualify for 2022.
"I'm not the same as everything they get out of it, they are new giants, if they are giants, they've gone into the past and still haven't made it to the World Cup, the three of them are still in qualification; America, and, they're all battling but when they win you get to the World Cup and you don't go there," he told.

In addition, Lice noted that Delta needs to be tougher on its rivals, just as its neighbors play in colder regions. Add to that the fact that, with the exception of the Octagon final, almost all the important matches are played on American soil.
"I think we lacked that determination, in the Americas we lost all three (Gold Cup, Nations League, World Cup qualifiers) for two simple reasons: the economic aspect. Yes, it's important, in a lot of things you're looking for, and that's to go to a World Cup.

"They used their home advantage 100 percent; they took you to too few places where the situation was very hostile for you, which worked in the qualifiers, and I think Mexico there have missed out," he added.
Herrera also took the time to talk about Tata Martino, praising his conditioning as a coach but assuring that the national team's technical staff must be Mexican.
"He plays well, for me he is a good technician, it's not a question of Marinchismo, but I think that the Mexicans have to lead the Mexican national team because they know their particularities, they know what makes us suffer more, and a technician from abroad who loses will suffer, but not like us.
We Mexicans must lead the Mexican national team because they know they are special.
"I think if Martino loses to the pair it will hurt because he knows what it means, and the same goes for us, losing to America will hurt. He has to understand what hurt us," he concluded.
