Al-Marsad newspaper: Argentina’s Gerardo “Tata” Martino has announced the end of his career with the Mexico national team, despite Wednesday’s victory over Al-Akhdar 2-1 at the end of the group stage of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar 2022 .
“I am primarily responsible for the frustration and disappointment – said Martino -. It’s a reason for sadness but I take full responsibility for this failure. My contract expires at the final whistle and nothing else can be done”.
Interestingly, the goal scored by Salem Al-Dosari in the last minutes of the meeting between the two teams contributed to Mexico’s exit from the group stage, on goal difference from Poland, so much so that the Mexican national team failed to reach the final round price for the first time since 1990.
