Santiago Giménez's father accuses that Jaime Lozano makes “Santi” play out of obligation

The reactions and criticisms after Santiago Giménez’s performance in the defeat of the Mexican National Team vs. Venezuela has not been long in coming and in the face of questions about the true ability of the Feyenoord striker from the Netherlands, his father came out to defend him by ensuring that the striker who has started as a starter in the last two games of the Aztec team in the Copa América 2024 He is not happy with the treatment he has been given Tricolor coach Jaime Lozano, during the current continental competition.

This was stated by the former Boca Juniors, América, Veracruz, Cruz Azul and Pachuca player, Christian Giménez, in his participation as an analyst for the Fox Sports network, ensuring that so that his offspring can score with Mexico and produce as he does with Feyenoord, rHe needs to feel fully supported by his strategist, which is why he was upset because he was relieved in the second half of the match where they lost to Venezuela 0-1.

“What I feel is that in order for us to get the best version of Santi, you need the trust of your coach, of your team. Santi is a 23-year-old boy who is supporting the National Team and obviously a lot is being demanded of him and it is normal. I’m not saying one thing for another, I can be a father, but I can also be an analyst and I was also a player, if you have the coach’s trust you will perform differently.”

Not without first accepting that Santiago did not have one of his best performances against Venezuela, he also revealed that he does not understand that Lozano comes out to support Santiago Giménez in front of journalism, but that in reality he puts him to play out of obligation

“I think he didn’t have a bad game, but he didn’t have a good game either. He is not at her level, he had one and he has to put it in, normally the ‘9’ of the national team has to put it in and the difference was that Rondón scored the goal and Santi did not… but I also have to say the other thing, in the end Santi Giménez needs support with actions, not with words.”

Criticism of the so-called “Chaco” went further and said that Santiago is aligned more to forcethat because of the love for the coach, national

“I also have to say that (Santi Giménez) is not much to Jimmy’s taste, I think there is an issue there that puts it more out of obligation than pleasure.he doesn’t finish completing the minutes, and in the end it’s like this.”

Giménez was substituted in the 60th minute of the match after throughout the time he was on the field he let a clear scoring option slip away, but most of the time he had to go out looking for balls to cause damage, so when he was relieved and went to sit on the bench, he ended up kicking a container of water in a clear sign of frustration and anger for leaving the field of play. .
