The situation of the Mexican national team in the 2022 World Cup is not at all promising. The indignation among El Tri fans was present once Gerardo Martino presented his list of players called up for the World Cup. In that sense, the Mexican coach completely deleted one of the players with the best moment.

It is precisely Santiago Gimenez, a player who was completely erased from the Mexican national team. The player was not present in the final call-up despite being the top scorer of the UEFA Europa League with Feyenoord, and there is already internal discomfort in the team due to this decision.

According to journalist David Medrano, he assured that the atmosphere in Girona is not the most encouraging and that there was a lot of uncertainty regarding the final call-up. Now, the team is preparing to face Sweden in the last friendly before Qatar and the first player who disagrees with Martino has already appeared.

Which player was upset by the veto of Gimenez?

The player who would have been one of the most upset by leaving Santiago Gimenez out of the World Cup was precisely Alexis Vega. The player was not entirely happy with the situation and for this reason he is seen a bit crestfallen in training. The Chivas player is expected to be the starter in Qatar 2022.
