He doesn't play with his club, but Gerardo Martino is going to start him in Mexico National Team next game

Players like Rogelio Funes Mori or Andrés Guardado were outplayed on the pitch of Independence Park, and before they were subbed, El Tri looked unsynchronized. So much that Funes Mori gave away the goal that gave Jamaica the partial victory.

When Diego Lainez joined the game, Mexico National Team became more dangerous and started overwhelming Jamaica, who was pushed back to their penalty area, which is why Martino is considering starting him against Costa Rica.

Who else will Martino start against Los Ticos?

Gerardo Arteaga made his return to Mexico National Team after six months and left good impressions on the Argentinian coach, who will likely place him on the starting XI, alongside Hirving “Chucky” Lozano, who will be available after fulfilling his 1-game suspension.
