Mexico National Soccer Team News

He doesn't perform, doesn't make a difference, enables rivals, and is still in El Tri only because he is a friend of Tata Martino.

This Mexican national team player does better for the team when he is not in the team.

This Mexican national team player does better for the team when he is not in the team.
This Mexican national team player does better for the team when he is not in the team.

Gerardo Martino called up 30 players for the current World Cup Qualifiers to defend the colors of El Tri and secure a ticket to the World Cup in Qatar 2022.

However, one of those players is not only not giving his all for the colors he swore to defend, but his presence alone has put the Mexican national team in trouble on more than one occasion

And the most representative example of this was in Mexico's recent match against Jamaica, a game in which in the first half, El Tri was one team, but in the second half and with the departure of this player, we could see a totally different squad

We could even see Alexis Vega, a Chivas player, showing everything he is capable of doing when given the opportunity

Not only did he provide depth to the team's attack, but he also scored the team's second goal, which was the final nail in the Jamaicans' coffin

And all because he came in as a substitute, to replace a player who, whenever he can, does not perform, does not make a difference, does not enable rivals and is still in El Tri just because he is a friend of Tata Martino.

Who is this player that should leave the Mexican national team?

Rogelio Funes Mori, the Argentinean naturalized Mexican should leave the team's training camp because with his departure, the Aztecs' attack improved and could have had a spectacular comeback to the game.
