Guillermo Ochoa received an official tribute from the Mexican Football Federation ahead of Mexico's friendly against Chile at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Honoring a storied international career spanning a national-record 154 caps and appearances across six World Cups, the veteran goalkeeper was presented with a framed pink Mexico goalkeeper shirt featuring his iconic name and number, "G.OCHOA 13".
However, shirt enthusiast account @TigresJersey quickly spotted a noticeable printing blunder on the presentation piece. The commemorative framed shirt was customized using the wrong Adidastypeface, carrying the blocky, angular typography created for Mexico's 2026 away kit instead of the standard font intended for the shirt.
A side-by-side comparison with match-prepared kits reveals the error plainly. While the correct goalkeeper customization features smooth, rounded characters, the framed jersey was pressed with the sharp, three-dimensional drop-shadow numbers designated for the away strip. While the mix-up does not diminish Ochoa's legendary legacy with El Tri, it makes for a curious detail on such an official keepsake.

Mexico's U23 squad has received brand-new Charlykits ahead of their campaign at the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games (Juegos Centroamericanos y del Caribe).
Fans expecting to see the customary Adidas three stripes on El Tri's youth delegation might be caught off guard, but there is a distinct structural reason behind the supplier swap for this tournament.
While the main national team and the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) are sponsored by Adidas, multi-sport events within the Olympic cycle fall directly under the governance of the Comité Olímpico Mexicano (COM). Domestic sportswear brand Charly holds the official apparel rights for all athletes representing the Mexican Olympic Committee through the 2028 Los Angeles Games, resulting in the U23 football squad dressing in Charly uniforms for these games.
The new Mexico U23 2026 home jersey features a deep green base highlighted by subtle tonal vertical stripes running down the front. The design is finished with a traditional polo collar and sleeve cuffs trimmed in red and dark green accents. Instead of the FMF crest, the chest displays the official Mexican Olympic Committee logo alongside Charly's emblem, paired with green shorts and white socks.
