The Mexican team will continue on its way to the 2026 World Cup. The Aztec team has their direct pass to the World Cup, but they will face a series of friendly matches before the America’s Cup and the Gold Cup. Among those called by Jaime Lozano is Hector Herrera. The inclusion of “HH” did not sit well with fans and the Major League Soccer player responded to them.
The new call of Jaime Lozano to the Mexican team had a great reproach and was the inclusion of Héctor Herrera. Among the users of social networks and some analysts considered that the former Atlético Madrid player He had already closed his cycle within El Tri due to his age and performance. But “HH” does not agree with this idea and pointed out the attitude of his detractors.
“I guess who are the ones who saybut the comments are taken from whoever comes. There are people in our country who believe that they are the Messi of soccer and they believe that they have the power of words to say who does things well, who does things badly, when they have never even touched a ball in their life. But I understand that it is part of his job, what he sells and what people like”, said the Mexican midfielder in an interview with Hi! SportsTV.
🇲🇽 The words of Héctor Herrera, after being criticized for returning to the Mexican National Team:
🗣️ “I have one of the best careers as a Mexican player”.
🗣️ “Let a person come to tell me that whether or not I can be in the National Team, it doesn’t make me lose sleep”.

Héctor Herrera continued with his disagreement about his critics and indicated that he would like to create a YouTube channel to drain all his feelings about people who already call their career off. But at the same time, the Mexican considers that he prefers to turn a deaf ear to his detractors.
“I respect his work a lot. I would love to make a YouTube channel and criticize all those peoplebut it is not my forte and I respect his words a lot, but I do not listen to them, “he added.
How has Héctor Herrera fared at the Houston Dynamo?
Héctor Herrera arrived at the Houston Dynamo as one of the most important signings in the club’s recent history. “HH” left Atlético Madrid and European soccer to experience Major League Soccer. But so far the Mexican has not been able to stand out.
“HH” accumulates 41 games since he arrived at the American institution. The Mexican has scored 4 goals and has conceded 13 assists with the club. Hector Herrera has more than 3,000 minutes on the field, but the Houston Dynamo is still not a serious candidate to lift the trophy in MLS.
