It's Official: Tevez To Start Against Mexico

That of course means that you'll have Carlitos and Lionel Messi up front, with Roman Riquelme pulling the strings. Alfio Basile has opted for los chiquititos instead of his preferred classic, No. 9-type of forward.

Thus, a superb second half against Peru has given the job to Tevez. This should be a great match.
