THE CHOSEN ONE
Sergio Giovagnoli was chosen by Gerardo Martino to be in charge of observing the Argentina national team in their matches in the United States during the September FIFA Date. Giovagnoli is one of all the confidences of “Tata” Martino, he knows him from Newell’s Old Boys and for that reason he chose him to watch the Argentines in Miami against Honduras and in New York against Jamaica. In the case of Poland, Norberto Scoponi will be in charge of traveling to Europe to follow the Poles, while Gustavo Dezzoti will follow up Arabia.
SHORT HEADS
When Benito Archundia arrived as President of the Arbitration Commission, they asked him not to fire anyone and that as the weeks went by, then yes, he would make the corresponding determinations, and so did the leader who already this week decided to take the bull by the horns and thank Quetzalí Alvarado, Mauricio Morales and José Santana. Quetzalí was responsible for the women’s arbitration, while Mauricio was responsible for the Liga de Expansión and Santana for the Second and Third Divisions, as well as the minor categories. With the change of instructors, it is expected that there will be an improvement in the corresponding branches. In Liga MX, the leader cannot do anything for now, since the Chilean Enrique Oses has a contract with the Mexican Soccer Federation.
ANOTHER FORGOTTEN
Ponchito González is one of the best Mexican players in Liga MX in the current tournament and the fact is that the player from Tamaulipas stands out in several departments where he is the best national player. The Rayados left-hander has participated in 11 goals and is the second best in terms of shots to goal with a total of 16, only behind Alexis Vega, who has 18.
Ponchito is also the best with 10 shots on goal from outside the area and is one of the best in terms of assists for goals with a total of five. Arturo Alfonso González was part of the generation that won the Under 17 World Cup on the Azteca Stadium field in 2011, and in 2016, he attended the Rio de Janeiro Olympics. In the process of Gerardo Martino he did not have much opportunity, since he was only called up last year for a friendly match against the Chilean National Team in Texas.
