Javier Hernandez: 'Mexico can beat anyone in World Cup'

Hernandez: 'We can beat anyone'

Mexico forward Javier Hernandez has insisted that anyone can be beaten, after beginning their World Cup campaign with a 1-0 victory over Cameroon.

After coming off the bench to help Mexico to three points on Friday night, Hernandez admits that the squad are full of confidence as they continue their bid for a place in the knockout stages.

"We know we are going game by game, trying to get the three points and no team looks easy for us but no team looks impossible for us to beat," the Manchester United striker told reporters.

"The truth is we entered the game with no pressure, no matter what other people thought or said, we came with the illusion and motivation of a World Cup.

"You have to see coming here as a showcase, as an incredible opportunity to do what you love most, that is playing football in the best competition."

Mexico meet Brazil in their second game on Tuesday night.
