Speaking of England facing Mexico at the Azteca Stadium, Rooney believes this is likely to be England's biggest hurdle in their quest for the championship.

Rooney: "England must rest well and prepare fully for the next match against Mexico, which is likely to be the toughest battle for the team in this tournament. If England wants to contend for the FIFA World Cup title, this encounter will be the biggest challenge.

I have no doubt that England's overall strength is superior to Mexico's, but Mexico has the home crowd advantage, and playing in front of their own fans will boost their morale. The Mexican people are always passionate, and this enthusiasm is not only reflected in football but also in boxing events, where the public always rallies to support their national athletes. And this home advantage is a huge test that England needs to overcome."

The Mexican team has already achieved four consecutive victories in this FIFA World Cup, beating South Africa, South Korea, the Czech Republic, and Ecuador, and has kept a clean sheet so far. As one of the co-hosts of this FIFA World Cup, they also have a major natural advantage: the Azteca Stadium is located at an altitude of approximately 2195 meters (7200 feet), and the English players will also need to adapt to the high-altitude environment.
