Although El Tri managed to earn 7 points in the past FIFA match window, it was clear that the current strikers that Martino calls are going through a rough patch, especially Rogelio Funes Mori, who couldn’t score in any of the matches he played.

But Martino insists on calling him no matter what, not even if there’s Mexican strikers around the world that could do a better job than him, like Alejandro Viniegra, who was recently acquired by Brazilian side Red Bull Bragantino.
