This morning Beijing time, according to media reports, former Mexican international Jonathan Orosco recently attacked Argentina's No. 1 goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez (i.e. "Big Martin") in a recent interview with Fox Sports, saying that Mexico is not as good as Argentina imagines.
Big Martin had previously posted a small video of his reaction to the World Cup draw on social media: When the television footage came out of Argentina's draw to Mexico, he and his children danced excitedly and celebrated, while someone next to him said "simple, simple".
Orosco was unhappy with The Big Martin's reaction: "We'll see how it turned out, Argentina beat us 4-0 in a friendly in 2019, so they now feel confident and think the game will be simple, they think they've won. Indeed, Argentina and Mexico played each other 3 times at the World Cup, and Argentina won all, the 1930 World Cup group stage: Argentina 6-3 Mexico; the 2006 World Cup quarter-finals, Argentina 2-1 Mexico; the 2010 World Cup quarter-final, Argentina 3-1 Mexico.
However, the existential value of the World Cup record is broken. Jonathan Orozco said: "Mexican players always go up a level in the big game, and the last World Cup was an example of Germany. Mexico will always be better at the World Cup, and we'll see if he'll be simple after the game. Indeed, in 2018 Mexico beat defending champions Germany 1-0 to advance to the round of 16, while Germany suffered a group exit. Although Mexico's strength has declined now, Argentina must not underestimate this North and Central American boss.
Some fans also think that the former Mexican international has overreacted, and the big Martin is just making the children happy and happy, and does not despise Mexico. Some fans said that if the enemy is light, it may suffer a blow. In 2010, Argentina had a hard time playing Mexico, relying on Tevez and Messi to break the Mexican defense line, and 2006 was also a difficult victory. Of course, more fans still feel that Argentina and Mexico have joined hands to qualify.
It should be said that the reminder of Mexico's former international goal is definitely good for Argentina to play in the World Cup. In the last World Cup, everyone felt that Argentina was stronger than Croatia in the same group, but in the end it lost 0-3, and Argentina could only compete for the second place in the group. The most important reason for Argentina's crushing defeat to Croatia (not one of them) is the mistake of goalkeeper Caballero to give a "gift".
Although Martin The Great showed his bravery in guarding the gate for the Argentine town, he must not be proud and careless in the World Cup, otherwise he will be like Caballero, who has been hated for thousands of years! Therefore, this reminder from Mexico's former international gate is conducive to the Argentine general to go out in a low-key manner and get good results - it is not too late to win the championship and raise the profile!
