DOHA, Qatar — Soccer has taken Uriel Antuna to places he never imagined. To the medal stand at the Tokyo Olympics. To clubs in the Netherlands, England and the U.S. Now to Qatar, where he'll likely make his World Cup debut Tuesday when Mexico opens group play against Poland.
"Very happy to be achieving a dream that I set for myself from a very young age," he said in Spanish.
Yet no matter how far he's roamed and how high he's climbed, Antuna has never forgotten where he came from and who helped him.
