Mexico has had great players in almost every position, the fact that the main national team hasn't won a world cup comes down to corruption in the National Federation. The talent is there, hence the U-17 team has already won two world cups (and a runner up, only losing to the Nigerian cheats that we all know are actually a lot older than 17, so in my book they are actually 3 world cups). If it wasn't for the national federation, the main team would at least have one world title already.

[@scaryhenski]

U-17 is like college you can do very well in it, but it when it comes to going up against the pros it’s a different story, sure you could blame corruption for Mexico’s downfall, but in reality they just don’t know how to play the game great for not going up against harder opposition most of the time, Mexico’s record against World Cup champions is 28 wins 42 draws 77 losses.

Underrated just like Julio César Chávez in boxing (he exposed his title more than many rated “better than him”). His mobility and flair was out of this world. He played una very hostile environment, he was under too much pressure from journalist in Spain and Mexico and still performed. He was a master shorting over and sometimes next to barriers. Have you seen the images? The ball curved horizontally and vertically with power, speed and incredible location. If not, ask Andoni Zubizarreta. He made the goalies just stand there and watch how the ball travelled and landed in one of the corners. For me, the partnership he made with Emilio Butragueño and Bernd Schuster was a killer combination. Those passes were not easy to hit so don’t imply he only pushed the ball to the goal, because he didn’t. He finished the play with skill in a time and place he created and in angles and situations that you rarely see.

[@carlosrosendo4173]

Hey thanks for the video you did an amazing job, the only thing that I didn't notice, was if you mentioned his acrobatic overhead kicks he did alot, which would increase his flair. And I appreciate how you clarified his positioning, agility, reaction which allows him to score even though he was small would like stretch himself beat bigger opponents.

Honestly Mexican players deserve a lot more credit, yes we do have a handful of players in Europe now but the reality is some of them are underrated or second guessed once they arrived in Europe. Like lozano in his first season in Napoli was decent but he didn’t get much play time. Now every time he’s on the pitch it’s a different game. Wolves without Jimenez is complete different as we saw when he got Injuried for a whole season,Man United was insane with chicharito at the front,Herrera at Porto and atlético can be a master at playing the ball,corona for Porto was played on the league last season,alverez at Ajax has helps them in the back ans even in one of his first games scored to help them qualify for the UCL. Mexican players need more Recognition and justice. (If only we can be good In a World Cup)

Thanks for the great video. To be fair, if he does not get the recognition he deserves, it is because of his personality: he is the most obnoxious fellow out there. Great football player, though.

This guy is my old man's idol and the reason why my whole house growing up had nothing but PUMAS UNAM. The only reason why he's not talked about is cuz he's Mexican🇲🇽 but this our GOAT 🐐

I remember seeing the futbol international magazines back in the day. He had sime great nicknames . El Macho, El Niño de Oro, Señor Gol, Hugol, Monsignor TNT, and even Pelé called him, Espectaculo. Truly one of the sports ultimate legendary players. Hugo Sanchez, the best striker in FIFA history. 😮⚽ 🌏
