Argentina legend, Diego Maradona is of the opinion that Mexico is set for rapid progress under his former team-mate Gerardo “Tata” Martino, and he also blasted the Argentina national team.
Diego Maradona was indeed impressed with El Tri’s 3-1 victory over Chile on Friday.
His words, “I saw Tata’s team and it was compact, Tata-style,”
“I had no doubt that if they allow Tata to work he will bring a lot of satisfaction to Mexico.”
“He’s put together [the team] quickly and I think it went well,”
“It’s not easy to score three goals against Chile.”
On Argentina, he said, “I don’t watch horror movies,”
“Which idiot thought Argentina was going to defeat Venezuela?”
“I lament it for the Argentine people that still believe in those liars, I lament it for the players that have to show face when they shouldn’t have to.”
Martino’s Mexico will battle Paraguay on Tuesday in Santa Clara, California, while Argentina face Morocco in a friendly on the same day.
