Jorge Azair (Mexico): “Mexico is presenting a team combined with U21, U23 and senior players because we’re taking this event as an opportunity to observe new players to conform our national team for next year’s busy schedule which includes World League, World Championship Qualifier and the Central American and Caribbean Games in Veracruz. Our team will play as we usually do, with excellence and especially with heart.”
