The Mexico vs Honduras duel will be this afternoon and Hernán "Bolillo" Gómez heated the match with controversial statements and also regretted the lack of spectators at the stadium.
Matches against Honduras have always been complicated for Mexico due to the commitment and passion of the Hondurans, who have not fared well in this World Cup Qualifying Round.
This national team no longer has the slightest chance of going to the FIFA World Cup, so this match against Mexico will be played more for the pride of beating El Tri than for the opportunity to get closer to the World Cup.
The head coach of the Honduran national soccer team said about the match: "Mexicans do not like any foreign coach", and affirmed that El Tri fans are too demanding with their coaches.
He even mentioned the example of Juan Carlos Osorio, the Colombian coach who led Mexico and took them to the Russia 2018 World Cup relatively easily, but even so, Mexican fans were never satisfied with him.
"In Mexico, let's say, they always want to run Tata out. Every game they want him out, and he's never been out of the qualification zone. We have to be patient," said the Honduran helmsman.
Furthermore, on the same subject, he affirmed: "what happened with (Juan Carlos) Osorio, he qualified them easily and they were never comfortable with him", and finished by saying that it is complicated "to be a foreign coach. In my case I have coached in Ecuador, Panama and now Honduras, and the work has been good. They always say that we only take the money and do not contribute. It is complicated".
Despite the coach's criticism of the Mexican fans, the Honduras coach did not fail to recognize the quality of the Mexican National Soccer Team at the CONCACAF level.
"Tomorrow we face the biggest team in CONCACAF, the team that has never missed a World Cup, the one that manages this zone, but that is a motivation for any national team. The other thing, going to an empty stadium is boring, you don't hear the applause, the people and you don't hear what is necessary the cheers? That's what is needed, that they tell me everything, that they tell the players everything," said Gómez.
In any case, Honduras is expected to give Mexico a close game, as this team has always given great games when it is their turn to face El Tri.
