Everything came together in Mexico’s scoreless draw against Uruguay for the match to paint the perfect picture of the disconnect that exists between El Tri and fans. After Mexico’s stars blasted the behavior of supporters at the Estadio Corona, manager Javier Aguirre answered by urging his players to develop “thick skin.”
Star forward Raúl Jiménez eviscerated Mexican fans after the draw vs. Uruguay, saying, “That’s what’s really sad. Maybe that’s why they always take us to the United States.” Meanwhile, El Tri captain Edson Álvarez was captured walking off the pitch sarcastically saying, “How nice it is to be at home.”
