After their performance against the former World Cup Champion, every Mexican thought Russia was going to be the place where El Tri finally was going to play the fifth game, but after the 3-0 loss against Sweden, thing got complicated, as Mexico National Team had to face Brazil in the round of 16.

Brazil ended winning that game by beating 2-0 El Tri, but according to reports, some of the mistakes made by El Tri during that game came from the bench and had to do with Mariana Zacarías, a TV presenter who was rumored to be having an affair with El Tri coach, Juan Carlos Osorio, who wasn’t focused on Mexico National Team performance.

After the 2018 FIFA World Cup, Mexico National Team extended a renewal contract to the Colombian coach, but according to reports, Juan Carlos Osorio declined to continue his stint with El Tri because his wife didn’t want him to keep living in Mexico.
