In the 2-2 tie between Mexico and Jamaica, Guillermo Ochoa managed to become the goalkeeper who lives in Concacaf with the most international matches with a Selection upon reaching 135 participations with El Tri. However, the public present was in charge of booing the goalkeeper who lives in Serie A in Italy.
With more of a game in the bag, Ochoa left behind in the list of appearances great players from the goal of the continent, such as the Honduran Noel Valladares and the Panamanian Jaime Penedowith whom he shared this distinction until the start of the duel played at the Azteca Stadium.
However, for Ochoa this does not mean being the goalkeeper with the most matches at the national team level, since he still has a long way to go for that, which he can achieve if he achieves his goal of being present with El Tri in the 2026 World Cup to be organized in Mexico, Canada and the United States.
Among the goalkeepers with the most appearances with a national team, we see how different European legends exist, such as Iker Casillas with Spain and his 167 matches played. In addition, another referent of the arc as it is Gianluigi Buffon from Italy with 176 matches appears on the list of goalkeepers with the most international appearances.
Finally, the king of matches played is far from the two Europeans, being Mohamed Al-Deayea of Saudi Arabia and his 178 matches played the figure that any goalkeeper wants to meet. Only time will tell us how many more matches the goalkeeper with a past at Club América and who is currently playing for Salernitana in Serie A in Italy will be able to add.
