Mexico's experienced goalkeeping icon Guillermo Ochoa is captaining his side at the Olympics and will be intent on winning the goal medal this summer. Ochoa has been exceptional for Mexico over the years and made a name for himself with a series of brilliant performances in the 2014 World Cup.

With their 36-year-old captain stepping up between the sticks, Mexico can afford to field a relatively young defensive line at the Tokyo Olympics. The likes of Cesar Montes and Vladimir Lorona are rising stars in Mexico and will want to make an impression in the competition.

Mexico have never been short on attacking talent and the likes of Diego Lainez and Alexis Vega will be keen to make the most of their opportunities this summer. The experienced Henry Martin has also been given a chance in Mexico's colours and is set to lead the line for his country.
