The Mexico Women's National Soccer Team (sometimes referred to as Las Tri) represents Mexico in international women's soccer competition and is controlled by La Federación Mexicana de Fútbol (Mexico Football Federation). The team was officially started before the 1999 Women's World Cup and was composed of Mexican and Mexican-American players. The main goal for the team was to qualify for their first World Cup. Since then, the team has developed and is now ranked 21st in the Women's FIFA World Ranking [1]. One of the big advantages the team has compared to all others is that they have had one coach, Leonardo Cuéllar for the past 14 years, which is rare to see in a national team from Mexico [2].
