Mexico gave Edson Álvarez a full 90 minutes in the friendly against Australia, his first appearance since ankle surgery. The midfielder showed several mistakes, indicating he is not yet back to peak condition.
Álvarez underwent left‑ankle surgery in February and returned to club action with Fenerbahçe in May. Competition in defensive midfield has intensified with Erik Lira’s strong performances, and coach Javier Aguirre has favored Lira for the World Cup roster.
Álvarez will need to work hard to regain his spot before the tournament.
