Although Mexico lost in the Concacaf League of Nations, “it is still superior to the United States and one game does not change the trend,” said Gonzalo Pineda, former tricolor national and Seattle Sounders auxiliary while highlighting how attractive the game can be. called the All-Star Game, to be held on August 25 in Los Angeles.
“A long time ago I did not see a United States of this level, but Mexico has been dominant in recent years, even the Americans have not been to the Olympics in four editions,” he said.
“Of course, the US has a new generation with players who are having a good time in Europe, but there are also very good Mexican footballers. Perhaps that match marked the beginning of a new era of rivalry between the two. “
Regarding the All-Star Game between MLS and Liga Mx, Pineda acknowledged that the meeting contributes little footballingly, but “it will be attractive in marketing as well as by the players” when remembering that the US league has important franchise elements.
“They are the Portuguese Nani, the brazilian duck and the Argentine Gonzalo Higuaín, every time I remember a team I think of a player of that caliber ”, he indicated.
“Others not well known, but talented are Víctor Vázquez, from the Galaxy; Diego Rossi, from LA, and Nico Lodeiro, from Sounders, “he added.
He stressed that although he has not been called up to the Mexican team, Javier Chicharito Hernández “has recovered a good level in MLS and it will be interesting to see how people receive him, if there are more Latino fans, and it will be interesting to watch him against Liga Mx defenders.”
