Monterrey, in a statement shared through social networks, announced the departure of Javier Aguirre from the club. The Monterrey team thanked “Vasco” for his services and wished the coach luck in his future projects. This decision is due to the poor performance of the team in the Club World Cup, the poor start it has had in the Clausura 2022 of the Liga MX and the strong pressure from the fans after the recent results.
Javier Aguirre’s situation at the head of Rayados was unsustainable. The most valuable squad in Mexican soccer never found a style of play under the command of the experienced strategist and his only achievement at the helm of this institution was the Concacaf Champions League title. The ‘Vasco’ was appointed as coach of Monterrey in December 2020 and was dismissed on February 26, 2022.
Javier Aguirre directed Monterrey throughout 53 games. During this tour he had 22 wins, 17 draws and 14 losses. That is to say, the ‘Vasco’ achieved an effectiveness of 52% in front of the people from Monterrey. The Mexican coach made his debut at the helm of Rayados with a 0-2 victory over Atlas de Guadalajara on January 10, 2021. His last duel at the helm of the albiazules was the 0-2 loss against Atlético de San Luis in day 7 of the Clausura 2022.
The ‘Vasco’ Aguirre was in charge of two Royal Classics. He lost the first, held on April 25, 2021, by a score of 2-1 at the Volcano. On September 20, 2021, Rayados got his revenge and beat the felines at the Gigante de Acero by a score of 2-0.
In the Guardianes 2021 tournament, Aguirre’s first in charge of Monterrey, the team finished fourth in the general table. However, the team was eliminated by Santos Laguna in the quarterfinals by an aggregate score of 2-3. At Grita México 2021, Rayados finished in ninth position in the general classification and convincingly beat Cruz Azul in the playoffs by a score of 1-4.
However, the albiazules said goodbye at the first change after being eliminated by Atlas de Guadalajara. The score ended tied 1-1, but the red and black advanced to the next round for a better position in the table.
The only title that Javier Aguirre won at the head of Rayados was the Concachampions. The Rayados prevailed by a score of 1-0. In the Club World Cup, the team from Monterrey lost in a surprising way to a diminished Al-Ahly and lost the opportunity to face Palmeiras in the semifinals and seek a place in the grand final of the international tournament. This was the beginning of the end of the ‘Vasco’ management.
