For Zaguinho, the Mexican team was petty and timid vs. South Africa
Luis Roberto Alves, former World Cup player for Mexico in the United States in 1994, disapproved of the Tricolor's performance against South Africa, describing their performance as petty.
The former World Cup player for Mexico in the United States 1994, Luis Roberto Alves “Zaguinho” did not agree that the Tricolor had a strong performance against South Africa, as the fans rated it.
On the contrary, he said that the “Vasco” Aguirre team had a poor performance and was too indecisive in many aspects and that it should have risked much more against an opponent who lowered flags from the first half.
“A very stingy team in its collective functioning, without ambition, without the dynamism and intensity that one could expect taking into account that you are playing in your temple, on your field, right?”
The current TV Azteca talent said that for that reason they will have to improve much more if they want to beat South Korea, that it will not be the same as South Africa and that for that reason, Aguirre must be aware that it was not a good performance.
"The one most aware that the debut was not good, that nerves took its toll on some, is without a doubt coach Javier Aguirre; I think he should have read the game and that they left a lot to be desired for their next matches in a World Cup where any mistake can be definitive.
A first class environment
For Zaguinho, the best thing was the atmosphere, the demonstration that this type of tournament can be organized and where without a doubt they must step with authority against the teams that could be considered favorites.
"There are no complaints about the opening, everything was spectacular, at a high level; without a doubt we have always been the best hosts. I think that little by little everything will improve and it will end up being a great World Cup."
Regarding the favorite teams, he stated that: "Well, I think that without a doubt France has a great team, Spain, Argentina, of course, with Messi no longer under the pressure of winning a World Cup. He will continue to be a transcendental player. Portugal could be it, right? The surprise, in short, there are Brazil teams, which will always be Brazil. I think that it could be among those.
