Manchester United star Javier Hernandez (Chicharito) and Mallorca forward Giovanni Dos Santos will lead the Mexican national team in the friendly against Nigeria Saturday in Houston.
The duo was named among the 23 players for Tricolore going into their packed campaign in June. Like Nigeria, Mexico will play World Cup qualifiers in June before heading to the Fifa Confederations Cup in Brazil.
Manager Jose Manuel de la Torre will use the game against the African champions to prepare his side. Only six of the called up lads play in Europe while the remaining 17 are based in Mexico.
