The project of the Argentine coach Diego Cocca in charge of the Mexican National Team It has already started and despite the fact that you have to wait a little more than a month to see its premiere, both he and his entire team are already working to find the first call for El Tri.
At the same time, criticism of his appointment continues to appear, surprising for many when the names that most sounded were the names of Guillermo Almada (Tuzos de Pachuca) and Miguel ‘Piojo’ Herrera (formerly free, currently in Xolos de Tijuana).
