The descent was completed. It was another dark day for Guillermo Ochoa in his career as a professional, although he might not even suffer it or prevent it on the field. The loss of category was inevitable for the Salernitana following a season to be forgotten in Serie A. With four days remaining, the Mexican goalkeeper’s team lost the category following having lost 3-0 once morest Frosinone as a visitor at the Benito Stirpe stadium, once morest a direct rival for permanence, which has moved away to 16 points with 12 left to play. That way everything is lost.

The veteran national goalkeeper mightn’t do anything to avoid it. Memo was not even called up for matchday 34. Just five days following having regained ownership in the team led by Stefano Colantuonothe team’s fourth coach in a year and who might not do anything important for Salerno’s team to stay in First Division, the veteran goalkeeper was conspicuous by his absence and disappeared once more in the match that ended up being the decisive one for their relegation.

On the playing field everything was in favor of the local team. Frosinone did not push himself to the limit and defeated his rival. Just following 10 minutes they took the lead on the scoreboard with a goal from Argentine Matías Soulé. The youngster shot from eleven steps and beat French goalkeeper Benoît Costil, who has played five of the last six games of the season.
The second goal came in the first half. It was a lethal counterattack. Salernitana had the ball in his possession, but lost it and in three touches, Marco Brescianini faced the European and beat him.
The rest of the game was a simple procedure. The scoreboard moved once more almost at the end with a goal from Nadir Zortea and the 3-0 remained on the board with the disappointment for Ochoa’s team, which paid the consequences of a terrible year and now goes directly to Serie B without nothing that can prevent it.
HOW MANY DESCENTS DOES MEMO OCHOA ADD?
Three declines in a decade. That is what Guillermo Ochoa has suffered in the Old Continent.
The Mexican goalkeeper’s first relegation was in France. In the 2013-14 season, Ajaccio finished in last place in the standings with only 23 points in 38 games where they conceded 71 goals in the 37 games in which they participated.

The second was in Spain. In the 2016-17 campaign with Granada he experienced one more failure because he might not save his team either, where in 38 games he conceded 82 goals.
While in this 2023-24 season, Memo mightn’t do anything relevant either. so that the Salernitana might be saved.
