They literally blew up a can on his head and broke his head. Pictures of Javier Aguirre with a bloodied face from Honduras’ win over Mexico in the Nations League.
Even so, the Mexican national team coach sent a message of unity to the Hondurans and played down the aggression he experienced at Morazán Stadium, which angered locals and foreigners alike.
After El Tri lost 2-0, Javier Aguirre was hit by a can that was thrown at him from the stands at the end of the game. The impact left him with a traumatic head injury. The pictures have gone around the world and the Mexican national team has already demanded that CONCACAF take necessary action in this regard.
“First, the Hondurans are suffering, they are losing their homes and jobs because of the storm. “Congratulations to Honduras, affected by Tropical Storm Sarah,” said ‘Vasco’ as he opened the press conference after the first leg of the quarter-finals.
Javier Aguirre was hit late in the match
“This is football. The match was clean, it was brave, they deserved to win, I have nothing but to congratulate them, this is football, one more match, I insist, we must recover,” Aguirre said. , to get back into contention, his side need a 2-0 win at the Nemisio Diese Stadium to win a tie or three goals to qualify before penalties, who knows.
Already about the match, the coach accepted the blame for the defeat, which went beyond “a bit strange, a bad clearance (by goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa)” that caused the first goal: “I’m not one to point. I’m the main reason for the defeat,” he said.
What happened in San Pedro Sula is regrettable. Tragic about Mexico’s sad sport and Catracha fans.
Terrible security and system! ❌
