Between vetoes and scholarships, the base that Gerardo Martino will occupy for the World Cup in Qatar 2022 is increasingly defined, in case the Mexican National Team gets its ticket, there are only 4 positions where ownership is at stake and the calls could change in the next 365 days.
It is evident that the right sector has been a headache for Martino, the ‘Tata’ has given continuity to Jorge Sánchez and the ‘Chaka’ Rodríguez, however, Julio César Domínguez appeared out of nowhere in Gerardo’s plans and has increased The internal competition, in addition, the selector has within his plans Julián Araujo, which leaves the right-back’s ticket at stake.
Jesús Gallardo had been untouchable for Martino throughout 2020 and 2021, however, Gerardo Arteaga appeared along the way, who although he remains among those punished by ‘Tata’, there is more and more speculation about his possibility of returning. In the same way, the side of León Osvaldo Rodríguez has opened a gap in the group of the coach, who, finally, does not lose sight of the evolution of the youth of América Salvador Reyes.
Two of the 3 midfielders look firm and untouchable, Edson Álvarez and Héctor Herrera have the full confidence of Martino, however, there is a missing piece that completes the midfielder triangle: several footballers have passed through there, although, only one can win the position, whether it is Andrés Guardado, Carlos Rodríguez, Sebastián Córdova, Orbelín Pineda, Luis Romo, among others.
Jesús Manuel Corona lives the moment of his career with Porto and this situation has had an impact on his level with the National Team, being well below those made by Lozano and Jiménez, who seem indisputable. The position ‘Tecatito’ will have to fight it with the youth generation, both those who go in this call and those who were not taken into account, such as Antuna, Alexis Vega, Diego Laínez, Roberto Alvarado among others that Martino likes.
