MEXICO CITY: Mexico have appointed Rafael Marquez as head coach to succeed Javier Aguirre following the co-hosts’ elimination from the World Cup, the football federation said on Wednesday. Marquez, 47, was Aguirre’s assistant throughout the World Cup campaign, in which Mexico won a knockout match for the first time in 40 years before losing 3-2 to England in the last 16. The appointment continues the federation’s “Project 2030,” announced in August 2024 when Marquez was named Aguirre’s assistant as part of a planned succession.
