The AT&T Stadium in Arlington near Dallas, Texas is one of the largest in the United States and can accommodate up to 100,000 viewers, depending on the event. Since its opening in 2009, it has been home to the popular Dallas Cowboys (NFL) and is decorated, among many other things, by a retractable roof. The stadium has enjoyed spectacles such as the Super Bowl XLV, NBA All-Star matches and NCAA final tournaments, as well as numerous concerts.

Tickets for Croatian fans wishing to attend the event will be sold via the official Ticketmaster website.

The friendly match between Croatia and Mexico will be played during the official term of FIFA. Both teams are among the top 20 in the world - Croatia is currently positioned 15th on the FIFA ranking, while Mexico is only two positions behind in 17th.

"Croatia is one of the best European teams, especially in attacking football, and they will come with their best players, including Modrić. It will be fantastic to face them, our styles are similar, and the fans will enjoy it. Croatia will try to control the game with possession, similar to Germany,” said the Mexica coach Juan Carlos Osorio. Mexico will play in the World Cup group stage with Germany, Sweden and South Korea.

In the past five matches together, Croatia has won all three friendly matches, while Mexico has celebrated in both World Cup duels. The last match between the two nations was back in May 2017, when Croatia defeated Mexico in Los Angeles 2:1.
