Rafael Marquez urges Mexico to take chance against Brazil

Marquez urges Mexico to take chance

Mexico captain Rafael Marquez has urged his teammates to seize their chance and beat Brazil at the World Cup tonight.

The Mexicans, who won their opening game against Cameroon, can take a huge step towards the second round if they defeat the host nation in Fortaleza.

"We have to make the most of this opportunity," Marquez told FIFA.com. "It is a showcase for all of us. For many of them it is an opportunity to go up one more level."

Marquez has scored 15 goals in 121 games for Mexico since he made his debut 17 years ago.
