Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has become a player of sorts in the growing rivalry between the United States and Mexico, with his image being used in TV promos for the soccer game tomorrow for the ticket to the Confederations Cup.

Fox Sports responded today to a prior promotion of the Mexican TV Azteca using Trump speeches against Mexicans, with the U.S. network taking them and using them for a promo.

Trump, a leader among the republican candidates in the polls for the presidential elections of 2016, has made a series of speeches against illegal immigrants, particularly against the Mexicans.

TV Azteca used parts of his speech against immigrants during the promotion of the game tomorrow for the last weeks, and Fox repeated the formula, adding Trump saying "I love the Mexican people".
