Hugo Sánchez acknowledged that he was wrong to accept the conditions of the FMF to direct the Mexican National Team.
Hugo Sánchez is one of the most successful Mexican athletes in history, but ‘Hugol’ revealed that one of his biggest mistakes was accepting the conditions he was offered to lead the Mexican National Team.
After the departure of Ricardo Antonio La Volpe from the Mexican bench, following the 2006 World Cup in Germany, the directors of the Mexican Soccer Federation appointed Hugo Sánchez as the new helmsman of the Aztec team.
The arrival of the Real Madrid legend caused great enthusiasm among the fans, however, in the documentary ‘BIOS Lives that changed yours: Hugo Sánchez’, the Pumas youth squad admitted that he was wrong to accept what the managers asked of him to lead the Mexican team.

“My worst mistake that I have made in my life has been to sign the contract with the Federation to take charge of three teams: the senior team, the Olympic team and the Pan-American team. I was so excited to lead the Mexican team that I agreed “, he pointed.
“Pentapichichi” stated that his goal was to guide Mexico to become World Champion, but following meeting with the owners and managers of Aztec football, he knew that it would be impossible for them to support his project.
“In the senior team I went with that idea of becoming world champions. That’s when the owners and presidents stared at me saying ‘This is crazy’. Well, no, we’re not going to be champions because you don’t believe it. So you have to believe it,” he said.
In the personal area, Hugo Sánchez confessed that the death of his son, Hugo Sánchez Portugal, has been the most complicated episode of his life and he acknowledged that he always cries when he sees the photographs of his firstborn.
“The death of my son Hugo, for me, has been the hardest thing in my life. I would have wanted and wanted to have left sooner and not have that suffering that I now have. With character and with great strength, we have had to learn to live with it “, he commented.
The ‘BIOS Lives that changed yours: Hugo Sánchez’ documentary relives the best moments in the career of the Aztec legend, but also reveals the most difficult episodes of his footballer and personal life.
