Mexico’s coach, Tata Martino, spoke to the press reviewing the last friendly match before the World Cup, against Sweden, and left words of thanks to the players he cut from the final list, including Diego Linez, from Braga.
“I will only speak of the 26 who are going to the world, the other four, and my deep gratitude for what they did, as Jesus Angulo and Eric Sanchez, for joining, almost at the beginning of all this, and fighting the chance of Santiago Jimenez and Diego Lainez, knowing that they are Off the list, you deserve thanks.”
Tata Martino also explained the call-up of Raul Jimenez, former Benfica player, despite doubts about his physical condition: “We decided according to his development. Tomorrow he will have minutes, and the response in training has been good.”
