The FIFA Confederations Cup Brazil 2013 is about to begin this Saturday, June 15, 2013 in the Brazil vs Japan match. There are two groups; Group A is made of Brazil, Japan, Italy and Mexico, while Group B has Spain, Tahiti, Uruguay, and Nigeria. Mexico has played far below their capacity in this 2013 by under performing in the CONCACAF World Cup qualifiers. They played three games in their last 2 weeks and they were only able to score 1 goal, while receiving none. On Saturday they begin they Confederations adventure when they play Italy in a game between two very good defenses. The tricolor won this competition when they hosted the cup in 2009, but things do not seem as they will go Mexico’s way this year.
