@rroberto_az Me tocó parte de ser del staff que montaba lo necesario para ese draft. Iba Néstor y todo el pinche día viéndolo para allá y para acá y nada. El América y cruz azul contraté y contraté. Veracruz vendiendo hasta la vajilla. Al final solo salió lo de la mitad de la carta de Pulido.
One player I didn’t know much about before this World Cup but who immediately caught my eye was Roberto Alvarado.
Really enjoyed watching him yesterday.
Looked extremely comfortable in possession and a lot of Mexico’s attacking sequences seemed to flow through his side. Constantly provided an outlet and looked confident receiving under pressure.
Clean first touch, strong close control and very tidy ball manipulation in tight spaces. Handled long diagonal switches very well and consistently turned difficult receptions into advantages for his team.
Also showed good carrying ability. Able to progress play through dribbles and maintain control, which helped Mexico sustain attacks.
For me, he was probably Mexico’s most impressive player in the first half.
Then in the second half he capped off a strong performance with the assist for Raul Jimenez’s goal.
This is exactly why I love the World Cup.
You get to see players you wouldn’t normally watch every week.
Roberto Alvarado is definitely one of those players for me.
Vi devo dire che la luce del sole a picco nell’Azteca, con i tagli di ombra della tribuna, è di una bellezza mozzafiato.
Ha un colore totalmente differente sul prato e sui volti, è proprio quella luce strana pastellata dei Mondiali ‘86 di Maradona.
È un sogno
A lot of people think I became a Mexico supporter today because of football banter.
Wrong.
I have been Mexican since childhood. The picture is there for evidence 🇲🇽
Dejé México y me mudé a Nigeria hace 10 años. Desde entonces, la vida no me ha dado la oportunidad de regresar 😔🇲🇽
Pero hoy, mi corazón vuelve a casa ❤️🇲🇽
Sudáfrica, con todo respeto… hoy conocerás a mis ancestros 😭😭
¡Viva México, cabrones! 🇲🇽🔥
