The Mexican National Team defeated Peru by the smallest difference in a friendly duel prior to the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The Aztec team beat the Blanquirroja by the smallest difference with a score by Hirving Lozano. Although the team’s performance on the field continues to leave doubts, Gerardo Martino, in an interview with the TUDN network, was happy with the result and said he was excited about the World Cup.
“We have always worked until now thinking about the next rival, but we don’t work based on the World Cup. We believe that to start working on the World Cup there is a lack of time. This begins on November 25, that is where this begins. Everything is having the right variants. I feel happy, I feel excited, eager to face the challenge of the World Cup”
– Gerardo Martino in TUDN
The strategist was satisfied with the performance of his team against Peru and stated that he understood that he had to change to have a more dynamic team. Martino considered that in this friendly Mexico offered a great first half. At a press conference, “Tata” made it clear that he included Luis Chávez and Carlos Rodríguez at the start, along with Edson Álvarez, to have greater dynamics.
Finally, the Argentine strategist pointed out that he is looking for a more associative striker and less finisher, which explains why he has a preference for Raúl Jiménez and Rogelio Funes Mori. It still remains to be decided who will be Tri’s third striker in Qatar, whether Henry Martín or Santiago Giménez.
In the middle of the week the Mexican team will face the Colombian National Team.
