Ahead of their crucial match team USA and team Mexico took a few moments to send a powerful message to president-elect Donald Trump.

The team posed together for a picture instead of the usual separate team photos to show unity after Trump's shocking election victory.

Trump has said in the past that he would build a border wall between the US and Mexico as a part of his presidential campaign.

Ahead of their crucial match team USA and team Mexico took a few moments to send a powerful message. The team posed together for a picture instead of the usual separate team photos to show unity after Donald Trump's shocking election victory

But the two teams, which were playing in a World Cup qualifier match (pictured), took the unity pictured that was captioned: 'No hay muro que nos detenga' or ‘There is no wall that can stop us'

But the two teams, which were playing in a World Cup qualifier match, didn't let that stop them from taking the picture that was captioned: 'No hay muro que nos detenga' or ‘There is no wall that can stop us.'

The game took place in Columbus, Ohio, where Mexico defeated USA 2-1. 

Trump said during a 60 Minutes interview on Sunday that he plans to deport two to three million undocumented immigrants with criminal records from the country immediately - and has insisted that he will still build his wall.

In his first extensive interview since he won the White House, Trump reassured his supporters that he will deport or incarcerate up to three million 'gang members' and 'drug dealers'.

In the interview, Trump said that he will build the wall along the US-Mexico border.

'After the border is secure and after everything gets normalized, we're going to make a determination on the people that they're talking about who are terrific people, they're terrific people but we are gonna make a determination at that,' Trump said.

'But before we make that determination...it's very important, we are going to secure our border.'

Interviewer Leslie Stahl asked Trump whether the wall could be 'part wall, part fence?'

His reply: 'There could be some fencing.'

The nearly 2,000-mile US-Mexican border currently has high walls in some sectors, fencing in others, along with electronic and human surveillance in other portions, including vast desert areas where border officials have questioned the utility of a large physical barrier.

Trump kicked off his presidential campaign by outlining his uncompromising stance on immigration.

He proposed building a wall – and making Mexico pay for it – to keep illegal immigrants out of the US because 'when Mexico sends its people,' he said, they're sending 'rapists' and 'criminals'.
