Javier Aguirre, coach of the Mexican national team, at the end the game where they beat New Zealand 3-0 He ruled out the possibility of vetoes in the Tricolor and announced in the press conference that the door of the Aztec team is open to everyone.

The above arises from the different versions who pointed out that players like Alexis Vega and Hirving Lozano have a record of indiscipline in the Mexican national team and are banned from future call-ups, which is why the so-called “Vasco” denied having received any report and especially that there is any veto for any player in the national team.

Record of indiscipline? NOTHING ⚽🇲🇽

Javier Aguirre reiterates that no footballer is denied a call-up and says he does not know if there have been any violations of the rules by players in the past

“I arrived on August 1, it was my first day in the national team and until today, it is the first time I have heard about this indiscipline, I sat down with the people from the national team, nobody has mentioned anything to me. And I also tell you, no one has to, with the doors closed, there has been zero indiscipline with me.

So, from here on, I don’t know, I was finishing my job in Spain, I don’t know, I don’t know what you’re talking about. And everyone starts from scratch, I don’t inherit anything, neither good nor bad.”They start with me from scratch and to this day none of them have committed a single indiscipline, zero, therefore, it doesn’t count,” said the new coach of the Mexican national team with authority.

Regarding this matter, it was handled in journalistic versions that Hirving Lozano had not been called up due to a disciplinary sanction due to a series of whims of the PSV Eindhoven striker and World Cup player in Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022, when they did not get him a first-class ticket prior to the duel against the United States in the last Nations League 2024.

As well as the fact that Alexis Vega is accused of having brought women into the concentration hotel in La Jolla, California, prior to Mexico’s participation in the 2024 Copa América, but Aguirre denied knowing this type of background and highlighted that: “From now on, a clean slate, we start from scratch.”

Regaining the trust of fans

Regarding the poor attendance at the Rose Bowl, where only 25 thousand people of the 90 that this venue has the capacity to see Mexico’s 3-0 victory over New Zealand, Aguirre said that they will soon regain the trust of the Tricolor fans.

“Clearly, on the emotional side, giving people what they ask for, “We have to identify with our team, a team that fights, that struggles, we cannot give up, we can play good football. So the message was that, it is not possible that 25 thousand people come, who have paid for their ticket, and go home sad, disappointed with what they saw, 25 thousand is not a bad number, but if it is right in the end, as we grow and we encourage each other and people are happy with their team, they will surely get closer and closer,” he concluded.

“The message is clear in terms of morale: give the people what they ask for, a team that fights and struggles, we cannot give up”
