Mexico continues in crisis after drawing 2-2 with the weak Valencia

The Mexican team extended the severe performance crisis he is going through and in Javier Aguirre’s third game as coach he could not defeat the weak Valencia of Spain which occupies 18th place in the general table of Iberian football and where they ended up drawing 2-2 at the Cuauhtémoc stadium in Puebla.

A result that It is another resounding blow of reality for the Aztec teamwhere the most worrying thing was seeing that there is no progress in football performance with “Vasco” in the technical direction when he was hired as a solution to the contrasting work of Jaime Lozano that ended in the failure of the Copa América 2024.

To make matters worse, the tie opens up a whole series of questions. of what could happen next Tuesday at the Akron stadium of the Chivas of Guadalajara against the United States team, which, on the contrary, beat Panama 2-0 in the debut of Argentine coach Mauricio Pochetino and which generates a series of questions and serious omens for the northern classic in this great rivalry that has grown in the last 30 years.

An endless number of pretexts could be argued and continue supporting the players that they are called up to the Mexican national team, but the reality is that these results only show that there is no commitment from the players when they wear the Mexico national team shirt and that instead of promoting them, it is a very heavy burden that complicates the outlook for get out of the crisis.

Now the last straw was that Mexico did not know how to preserve a two-goal lead. and when it seemed that the Aztec team would let its hair down against an opponent that, while being one of the weakest teams currently in the Spanish League and traveling with an alternative team for the duel against Tricolor, knew how to resolve its lack of training and his hours of sightseeing in the city of Puebla, to aggravate the moment that the Aztec team is experiencing.

Perhaps it is exaggerated and that too many things are being demanded of the new coaching staff headed by Aguirre and complemented by the five-time World Cup winner Rafael Márquez, but the reality is that there is no perceived improvement in Mexico’s performance and that after calling up 32 players in his short management he cannot find a way to keep his paste.

The poorness of the result made the debut of the naturalized Germán Berterame went to second place and although he was determined and had some scoring opportunities, the reality is that he ended up infected by the negative inertia that the Mexican team has carried for too long.

Explanations of the result

Without a doubt the 2-2 draw with Valencia, which did not bring the best of its squad, opens a range of doubts regarding the improvement that was expected with Javier Aguirre and now with an alternative team where the contrasting performance of the Mexican national team did not contribute to regaining the trust of the fans.

Because the reality is that Mexico cannot be so fickle in their performance, since after an acceptable first half where they managed to take a two-goal lead with the scores of Alexis Vega and Ozziel Herrera, they allowed Valencia to recover to tie the score with a double from the Spanish Daniel Gómez.

At the end of The sparks from Berterame, Alexis Vega or César Huerta himself were of no use, If overall you see a disjointed team and when people like Luis Romo leave the field they lose the few threads of football coherence that the Mexican team shows.
