With Mexico beating El Salvador this morning, they and the United States managed to qualify for the World Cup in Qatar. Mexico is also qualifying for the Eighth Consecutive World Cup.
It was also the 17th time in The history of the Mexican team to qualify for the World Cup, and their best result was the quarter-finals of the 1986 Home-grown World Cup.
In the history of the World Cup, the Dutch team is known as the "uncrowned king". In the past 7 World Cups, Mexico has participated in 7 consecutive times, but all of them have stopped in the round of 16. Therefore, Mexico has also been put on the hat of "World Cup 16".
With the World Cup in Qatar, Mexico captain, 36-year-old main goalkeeper Ochoa, will also be on his fifth World Cup trip of his career, and in July this year, he will turn 37.
Ochoa has long been a legend of the Mexican national team. In 2005, Ochoa, who was only 20 years and 5 months old at the time, made his national team debut, and so far he has made 128 appearances for the Mexican national team, keeping 54 clean sheets. He played in 8 World Cup matches and kept 3 clean sheets.
Ochoa, who has not played for a big team in his career, debuted in the Mexican Team Americas and has played for European clubs such as Ajaccio, Malaga, Granada, and Standard Riez.
What makes Ochoa fire out of the circle is not only his heroic performance in the World Cup, but also because his appearance resembles the Chinese Hong Kong actor Wu Zhenyu, so Ochoa also has a nickname "Mexico Wu Zhenyu".
Although he played in the World Cup in 2006 and 2010, he did not play as a substitute goalkeeper until 2014. In the round of 16 of the 2014 World Cup, Mexico and the Netherlands fought, and Ochoa's high resistance made fans around the world remember the goalkeeper from Mexico.
In that game, Ochoa made 3 key saves, if it were not for Robben's "fall to the ground" in the penalty area before the game, Mexico was awarded a penalty, and the final promotion may not be the Netherlands.
And in the first match of the 2018 World Cup, Mexico against the defending champion Germany, this time, Okoa's performance is more crazy, in the face of the defending champion's "indiscriminate bombardment", Okoa saved 9 times, trying to ensure that the Mexican gate was not lost, but also with a sharp counterattack, a one-hit victory, in the first game of the World Cup, it gave the German team a black opening.
Ochoa seems to have been born for the big picture, and at last year's Tokyo Olympics, Ochoa competed as an overage player, and in the end, they beat the host Japan team in the bronze medal battle to win the bronze medal.
5 times to participate, has made Ochoa shoulder to shoulder, I hope that this big scene gentleman, in Qatar can once again stage a super god picture.
