What Funes Mori gives Martino to be always called up, not even Ochoa dares to do so much

Gerardo Martino shared the final list for the friendlies prior to Qatar 2022. There were many surprises in this controversial call-up, including the absence of goalkeeper Carlos Acevedo and the presence of striker Rogelio Funes Mori.

It was known from the beginning that the Argentinean was one of Gerardo Martino's favorites. However, he is a player who has not been active for some months and yet Martino has called him up for the last friendlies before Qatar 2022.

In that sense, now the great reason for the call-up of Rogelio Funes Mori by Gerardo Martino is revealed. It is that the player gives him something in return to ensure his call-up in each roster. Something that no other striker has done before.

What does Rogelio Funes Mori do?

It's all because he is one of the most supportive of the coach and also, tactically, he is the only striker in Liga MX who knows how to play as a pivot and post. That is to say, he can hold the ball with his back to the ball, unload with the wingers or sometimes try long distance.
