After the Mexican national team got their pass to the World Cup and was placed in group C, they are already beginning to talk about the players who can make up the ‘Tri’ squad in the World Cup and the name de Javier Hernández was one of those who was put on the table.

After a final stretch in which Mexico had tremendous difficulty scoring a goal, There are many journalists and fans who ask for the return to the national team of ‘Chicharito’ who is experiencing a very good moment in the LA Galaxy and on this occasion, Gerardo Martino himself was in charge of explaining the subject and the real possibilities that the striker has of wearing the colors of the ‘Tri’ again.

And it is that In an interview for Azteca Deportes, ‘Tata’ explained that Javier Hernández is still an option among the available soccer players

to take to the World Cup despite the fact that he did not count for the coach during the entire tie.

But despite not closing him the door directly to ‘Chicharito’, if he said that the final list will be taken by the coaching staff according to the needs that the team may have, so the area of ​​the front seems to have it quite clear Martino.

Just yesterday I asked again about Chicharito’s chances of returning to the National Team and it is impossible for Tata Martino’s decision to change. Javier Hernández will NOT be in the Qatar World Cup 2022.

“He falls within what we understand to be soccer players eligible, I have been saying this for two years. The reality is that for two years he was not elected, the general concept does not change

and we are in the field where the decision that a footballer is or is not, is within the orbit of the coach, “said ´Tata´Martino.

The reality is that while the forwards that Martino usually calls, as is the case with Funes Mori, Henry Martin and Raúl Jiménez himself are not experiencing their best football moment, while Javier Hernández has accumulated two goals in four MLS games and is coming off a brilliant season in which he scored 04 so many in 21 encounters.

And while El Tata ignores him and the Mexican National Team suffers from a lack of goals, Chicharito Hernández does not stop converting with LA Galaxy. The top scorer in the history of the TRI adds GOALS in his last 21 MLS games. The Mexican forward in the best state of form NO DISCUSSION. pic.twitter.com/gs2eyT0Fuy— Undefeated (@InvictosSomos) April 3, 2019
