Univision has the live stream Spanish language coverage of the World Cup 2014 as Brazil and Mexico play their Group A match on the schedule Tuesday and things start up at 3 pm ET from ESPN on TV and the WatchESPN website as the host nation tries to win its second game of the tournament at Estádio Castelão in Fortaleza against El Tri.
Brazil and Mexico open the second set of group matches and while Group A is not the toughest draw in the tournament, it has talented teams and Mexico has shown in the past that they can give Brazil some trouble. Mexico and Brazil matched up in the Olympics with El Tri winning, while Brazil got the better of the team at the Confederations Cup, which the host nation won. Brazil will most likely get through to the knockout stage since they are a favorite and already won their first game and getting points in this match will only make that easier.
Brazil opened the tournament on Thursday against Croatia and the team got a win despite allowing an own goal to go down 1-0 and they ended up coming back and winning 3-1. In the last World Cup there were only three comebacks and there have already been five during this stretch. Neymar and Brazil are one of the favorites in the tournament and they have a clear path through Group A and they basically can lock up a spot in the next round with a win against Mexico.
Mexico now has the chance to be the wild card among this group, as they can get at least a point here with a strong game and that will make it tough for Croatia and Cameroon to catch up. Brazil knows that it can basically lock up a place in the next stage with a win and that is why this matchup is so important and that means Neymar will be front and center. The Mexico team still owes the US a pat on the back, as they knocked out a team in qualifying to keep El Tri alive and now they are looking to make the most of it.
The United States had a stunning opening result against Ghana and won 2-1 and now they have finally put away the demons of the past two World Cups and they still have a very hard road no matter what happens. Clint Dempsey showed this is not the usual US team, as he scored 30 seconds into the match and he has shown to the world that he is the best player in the US and one of the best in the game overall. The American side now has a chance to get out of the group of death and that makes the matchups with Portugal and Germany even more important.
Brazil plays Mexico now and then finishes with Cameroon, while Mexico also has Croatia and both of those teams will be desperate for points. Brazil remains one of the favorites in the entire tournament and they will be looking to make a mark here.
