Gerardo Martino confirmed his reign as Mexico head coach was over following their World Cup exit.
Mexico’s 2-1 win over Saudi Arabia was not enough to secure a round-of-16 spot as Poland finished second behind Argentina in Group C on goal difference. After the game, former Barcelona boss Martino – who has been in charge of Mexico since January 2019 – said: “The contract expired with the final whistle and there is nothing else to do.
“I am the man responsible for the frustration and disappointment. It is real sadness and I assume all the responsibility for this huge failure.”
