Mexico coach Miguel Herrera has insisted that his side are at the Copa America to win the tournament, despite some suggestions that he has picked a weakened side.
El Tri will have to compete in two showpieces this summer as the CONCACAF Gold Cup also takes place in July, with Herrera suggesting that he has needed to pick two different outfits capable of winning each tournament.
"[We have brought] some stars, the best goalkeeper in Mexico at the moment in Jose Corona. There are Liguilla players, World Cup players, Rafa Marquez who has played in four World Cups," Herrera told reporters.
"Mexico is the only national team in the world that can play in two different confederations, which is great. We can play Copa America, and also the Gold Cup, which is our confederation.
"This is why we need two teams in order to play these competitions, but that doesn't mean that this is the B one. People here want to make it to the final and win it. That's our aim for the Copa America."
Mexico begin their Copa campaign on Friday when they face Bolivia.
