US World Cup warmup vs Mexico not revenge match

MONTCLAIR, N.J. (AP)—The last time they hooked up, Mexico beat the U.S. women for the first time, grabbed an automatic spot in the upcoming World Cup and forced the Americans to take a circuitous route to the tournament.

Could make for a spicy revenge motive for the United States—except that the Americans have tunnel vision in preparing for the world championship that begins later this month in Germany.

Beating Mexico at Red Bull Arena on Sunday “would be satisfying,” star forward Abby Wambach said. But she called the final warmup match “another step to what we are after, which is the World Cup trophy.”

The United States opens its World Cup schedule against North Korea on June 28.
