It took 17 years for Pumas face a final of the Concacaf. That time the faces were seen against Saprissa, one of the most important teams in Costa Rica who was able to defeat the College students and become, so far, the only team to stain the hegemony of Mexican soccer in this instance.
Now the set of UNAM star again in a match for an international title in search of going to the Club World Cup to represent the Concacaf and Mexican soccer, but this commitment is not seen as a rematch of that failure in 2005 for a soccer player who participated in the defeat as Israel Castro.
“I don’t see it as a rematch, I believe that each circumstance, each generation and each moment is different. We have to give each generation and moment a place and in this case they are playing in totally different circumstances, other characters, in different For me it has no comparison and it means nothing more than the moment they are experiencing, a final against another team, that they have to make their approach, they have to go with their circumstances and live it to the fullest and get the most out of all this ” , commented the former soccer player in an interview for EL UNIVERSAL Deportes.
Losing in 2005 and being the only Mexican team to fall in the final of the CONCACAF Champions League It was not a coup in the football career of Israel Castroon the contrary, he took it as a lesson, “Obviously you shoot because things go well, to win and when they don’t happen, sometimes it’s complex. Now from a distance I see it as a great learning, as something that I know we could have done and wanted to go to a Club World Cup or to have won that tournament, to know that we gave our best effort”.
