The national team will be playing two games on November, and head coach Martino revealed his position with Chivas undisciplined players.

Mexico national team will be playing two games during November, against South Korea (Saturday 14) and Japan (Tuesday 17). Gerardo Martino is still defining who are the players that he will call-up for both friendlies, despite there are some who for sure will be integrating the list.

Some of Chivas players may not be included this time for a very particular reason. All Dieter Villalpando, Chofis López, Alexis Peña and José Juan Vázquez were separated by the Mexican side for committing some undisciplined acts that both head coach Víctor Vucetich and sport adviser Ricardo Peláez considered to sanction.


But the question nowadays is what is going to happen with those players in the national team. Martino assured that those players need to adapt and understand that they are playing in a very big club, and they need to behave as expected. He said that they should be intelligent as to manage those situations.


Martino didn’t make clear if those players could be call-up or not, but his statements make us think he won’t. Besides Chivas is completing an awful regular season, in which they didn’t make it to the top four teams of tournament Guard1anes and those undisciplined players were not at the level as to play in the national team.
