Gerardo Martino finds new excuses for El Tri’s performances
Gerardo “Tata” Martino is facing the most crucial game of his career as El Tri coach, as a win will secure his place in the Aztecs bench at least until the next FIFA match window. But a tie or a defeat, will most likely end his stint with Mexico.

Why FMF hasn’t fired Gerardo Martino yet?
