Mexico City /
What a stir have been caused by the statements taken up in Mediotiempo on the day that Hugo Sánchez denied being Mexican by ensuring that he would have won the World Cup with any other team. This reached the ears of Carlos Hermosillo, who shared in two World Cups with the Pentapichichi, which he defined as “a disappointing person” for his self-centeredness.
“I lived very little with Hugo Sánchez before the World Cup (1986), we played a game together in Los Angeles and then in the final concentration for the World Cup. Hugo arrived from Spain with his masseur and for me he was the international player, the great scorer, I saw him very great, it was a privilege for me, but to be honest, Hugo Sánchez disappointed me a lot because in the National Team he did not achieve anything important, which he did in European clubs,” said the historic Cruz Azul striker on the podcast Mother Soccer from FutVox.
“In the National Team, she lived attending publicity commitments and she was almost never with us. When she spoke to us, she only spoke regarding Míchel, regarding Butragueño and that he scored all the goals, he is a guy who only looks out for himself, an individualist, his ego is stronger than anything else. For a young man like me who only had two years of having debuted and being able to live with the one who is your idol and realizing how it was, I expected something else, it left me much to be desired“, he added.
Hugo was always loudmouthed and never a leader: Hermosillo
It is not that the black thread is being discovered when it comes to Penta’s personality, but it is striking that a forward colleague in two World Cups affirms that “Hugo was never a leader”, accusing him of always seeing only for his benefit.
“Hugo’s problem was his mouth, sometimes we speak with the stomach before thinking things through. If Hugo had been more humble without being so hotheaded in his statements, he would probably I would have achieved many more things as a coach because as a player there is no doubt that he was the best of all the Mexicans, but that statement when says that he would have won the World Cup if he were not from Mexico is very wrong because he attacks all his teammates. Or might he only play with Míchel and Butragueño? never spit up, in life you have to be congruent and that does not exist in himHermosillo said.
“How many barbarities does he not say and it even seems that he does it on purpose so that we are talking regarding him, so that his name appears and he loves that, that everyone pays attention to him. He was never a leader because he never led by example, never sat down to eat with us.
‘Hugo Sánchez disappointed in World Cups’
The World Cup in Mexico 86 It was the first experience of Carlos Hemosillo with Sanchez Marquez, from whom his companions expected to be the one to guide them towards a historic performance, but the Big One from Cerro Azul remembered that the Real Madrid striker “disque was injured” in the Quarterfinals and preferred not to shoot a penalty shootout that meant elimination.
“I remember that in that game once morest Germany he ends up pulled or torn disc, the masseur that he brought from Spain was the one who rubbed him on one side of the court and never came back, not even to try to participate in the match. Since he was a supposed leader, he no longer wanted to participate. Add to it that he missed a penalty once morest Paraguay, the one that did not shoot once morest Germany, he had a bad World Cup because we all expected much more from Hugo Sánchez and nothing happened“, he claimed.
‘If Messi hasn’t won the World Cup, Hugo less’
For “lower the smoke” to the historic scorer regarding his frustrated dream of lifting the World Cup, the unforgettable #27 of the Machine put as examples to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, two of the best in history whom they have been denied glory.
“And Messi that he is the best player in the world in a national team like Argentina, with great players around him, He has not been a World Cup champion… And Cristiano either he has been able to win it being who he is as a footballer, why Hugo Sánchez might have won the Cup, please“.
