"The FIFA World Cup gets underway in three days. From 35,000 to 45,000 fans are set to arrive in Russia from Mexico, you'll see a green wave, [there will be] lots of fans," Moreno told journalists.

The Mexican Foreign Ministry plans to deploy four mobile consulates in the Russian cities of Rostov-on-Don, Yekaterinburg, St. Petersburg and Samara during the tournament in order to provide assistance to the Mexican fans.

Mexico's first match at the World Cup will be against reigning champions Germany in Moscow on June 17. The team will also face Sweden and South Korea in their other two Group F matches.

Russia's first-ever FIFA World Cup will be held at 12 stadiums across 11 cities from June 14 to July 15.
