The greatest goalscorer for Mexico with 52 goals in 109 games, Javier Hernandez was an integral part of the national team setup for a decade.'Chicharito' as he was famously called, made his debut for Mexico in September 2009 in a friendly game against Colombia, providing an assist for his team's only goal in a 2-1 loss.He represented his nation at three World Cups in 2010, 2014 and 2018, respectively.Chicharito was also part of Mexico's 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup, 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, 2015 CONCACAF Cup and the Copa America Centenario.The former Manchester United striker's most lethal performance for Mexico came at the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup when he scored a hat-trick against El Salvador.

One of the cult heroes of modern-day Mexican football, Jared Borgetti scored in every major international tournament he featured for his country.His best performance at a tournament came at the 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup, when he scored three goals.Borgetti scored 46 goals in 89 games for Mexico, with the majority of his goals coming in helping Mexico qualify for two World Cups. The former Bolton Wanderers striker scored his first goal for Mexico on his debut against Ecuador in 1997, after which he was not selected in the national team for more than three years.On his return, Borgetti scored his second international goal against Ecuador in 2000, before consistently being selected for Mexico and becoming a major threat up top.

One of the greatest Mexican footballers of all time, Cuauhtemoc Blanco revolutionised the deep-lying forward position in the early 2000s.One of the best penalty takers of all time, Blanco scored 38 goals for his country. He is also the first Mexican to score at three World Cup tournaments when he netted at the 1998, 2002 and 2010 editions. This record was later matched by Rafael Marquez and Chicharito.Blanco is also the joint top goalscorer in Confederations Cup history with nine goals, alongside the legendary Ronaldinho.An interesting fact about his Mexico career is that he had announced his retirement from international football after his 100th game in 2008.However, Blanco came out of retirement in 2009 to help Mexico clinch their spot at the 2010 World Cup.

Only the second player in history to play three alternate World Cups, in 1978-1986-1994, Hugo Sanchez led Mexico to the quarter-final of the 1986 edition.Out of his 29 goals for Mexico in 58 caps, the only World Cup goal of his career came in 1986 in a 2-1 win over Belgium.After Mexico were suspended for the 1990 World Cup in Italy, Sanchez appeared in his final tournament in the USA in 1994, where Mexico suffered a round of 16 elimination.
