The World Cup in Qatar 2026 will be an edition to forget, at least for Mexican fans. Mexico was eliminated in the group stage and left a very bad image. Gerardo Martino’s team was very close to leaving without a single goal in the World Cup and, therefore, without a victory. Another detractor emerged from Tata’s management: Miguel Herrera.
The former UANL Tigres coach criticized the lack of variations and reaction that Gerardo Martino had on the Mexican bench . Tata has directed great teams like FC Barcelona and teams like Argentina, but Miguel Herrera assured that the South American strategist is not a good coach.
“A strategist is a guy who knows how to modify when things are not working out, If you go to war with your hands tied, they don’t give you rifles, they don’t give you rifles because you’re going to lose the war , or he doesn’t change, he’s losing the war and he doesn’t change his strategy, you’re going to end up giving up everything. We did not see a great strategist , his resume was good, until we realized that they sold him to us as a great strategist and he is not ”, explained Miguel Herrera to Telemundo.
Gerardo Martino gave the game to Argentina
A lot of controversy was generated by the lack of game proposal of the Mexican team on Argentina. Despite the fact that Miguel Herrera did not affirm that Tata gave away the game, he insinuated that Gerardo Martino’s actions lead to think some things related to it.
“That’s another thing, you can’t ask me that because I don’t know , if you put a formation to defend, you must use your best men, if you don’t give much to talk about and your players don’t understand you and that’s what Chávez is saying that they did not generate a goal play ”, he concluded.
