The Mexican soccer team put aside the ghosts of the first day and the most important, those of the goal . “El Tri” thrashed Guatemala 0-3 in the second match of the Gold Cup. The hero of the match was a “Twin” and his name is Rogelio Funes Mori .
More Mexican than ever . The footballer of Rayados de Monterrey scored his first two official goals with the “El Tri” jersey. After criticism of his previous match began to be whispered, the new Aztec player responded to Gerardo Martino’s confidence and greatly influenced the result with a couple of goals.

The first goal was a real gem. Funes Mori generated the action alone and defined in a spectacular way against the Guatemalan goal at the 25 minutes of the first half. To the 10 minutes of the second half, the striker would score his second goal and in this way would put the Mexican victory back on track, leaving behind the ghosts of the definition.

Finally, the third was work of Orbeín Pineda , Cruz Azul player who has serious intentions of going to Europe in the next market of signings and, with these performances, is even more likely.

Funes Mori in the role of “10 ”
The forward of Rayados de Monterrey has a quite complete talent repertoire Definition is not its only power. The “Gaucho” masterfully assisted his companions on many occasions , but they were not forceful in the face of goal. However, this is a good indication that “El Tri” has an efficient footballer and with great clarity on the attack front.

Gerardo Martino attacked those who question Funes Mori
“ Controversies will never end, comparisons will continue infinitely . It would be good if they had a cut not because of the two goals today, but because there are two analyzes, one of the people who are against the naturalized and the other that if the player is in a position to be in the national team in football terms, ”said the Argentine at the press conference after the game.
“El Tri” stomped on
The Mexican team, with the victory against Guatemala, managed to reach four points after a win and a draw. Those led by Gerardo Martino are in second position behind El Salvador . The Aztec victory eliminated the Guatemalan team from this edition of the Gold Cup.
