One of the promises that aimed to be an heir to Raúl Jiménez in the Mexican National team was Esteban Lozano, Club America’s U-20 striker. Big things were expected from him in the current pre-olympic tournament.

However, in Mexico’s recent failure against Guatemala, Lozano in the 87th minute had a penalty kick to win the game and earn a ticket to the World Cup in Indonesia 2023, but unfortunately missed it and sent the match to extra time and then a penalty shootout where Mexico missed 4 of the 5 attempts.

Is Esteban Lozano responsible for El Tri’s failure?

Although the Azulcrema player had the opportunity in his hands, but experience failed him. The young player alongside Luis Perez are mentioned as possible culprits, but the responsibility is not only theirs. Nevertheless, Mexico’s failure to advance will not be taken lightly by the directos of the institution.
