What was believed became reality. Atlas presented officially to Benjamín Mora, who will be the new coach of the Guadalajara team after the departure of Argentine Diego Cocca, strategist who will always be remembered for giving the institution a bi-championship within the MX League.

Who welcomed the Mexican coach to the foxes was José Riestra, sports president of Atlas, making it clear that it is not a hasty decision, because they had been watching their way of working for more than two years.

In addition, the team’s coach let them know how Atlas would play, because according to he would look for a game focused on “possession of the ball, playing a more associative football and that there are variants in the formations”.

“Having more possession of the ball, being a more associative soccer player and there are variants in the formations . I like to have the ball, go out playing, have an agile game to score goals”, were the first words at the head of the Guadalajara club from Benjamín Mora.

“It was not easy at all, never in my life had I been interviewed so much, Grupo Orlegi he dedicated himself to making a scrutiny. I always had a big dream of going back to my country to direct.. today my heart is red and black, my mind is red and black . Surprised to have this opportunity in Mexico. I appreciate the trust. I know about the challenge of sitting on the bench of the Atlas”.
