Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez He did not think twice to respond to the criticism of a Chivas de Guadalajara fan who questioned the Mexican forward’s commitment after the defeat suffered over the weekend against Cruz Azul (3-0) in the 2024 Clausura Tournament of the MX League.
And the player from the Sacred Flock uploaded to his social networks, in which he is usually quite active, a publication related to the Kings League America where he is president of a team, Olimpo United, for which he was criticized by a fan of the Guadalajara painting.
“We lost 3-0 at Azteca against the sons of Ame and you have the nerve to post this. We have three classic “Chicha”, no ching…”published the user of the social network Instagram, a message that obtained a strong response from the all-time top scorer of the Mexican National Team.
“Hopefully our country can come to understand that we are human beings before we are footballers”Javier “Chicharito” Hernández began his defense, who is back in Mexican soccer with Chivas del Guadalajara after a long 14 seasons.
“We are the first to live and feel the pain of defeat. We are the first to always want to win and avoid any defeat. But life goes on. And that does not take away any responsibility from us, on the contrary. It commits us even more”added the experienced Mexican forward.
“Chicharito” Hernández, who is coming off a long knee injury that ended up forcing his departure from the Los Angeles Galaxy of the MLS, emphasized that not everything can be measured in wins and losses, which turns them into heroes or villains depending on the result.
“When we win we enjoy, we learn and we continue. When we lose we accept the painful learning and continue. We cannot be required to enjoy human life only when we win and suffer it when we lose. “We should not be categorized as heroes if we win and as villains if we lose.”added the forward who has played two games in this Clausura 2024.
The defeat was a hard blow for Chivas de Guadalajara, who this Wednesday will be facing the first leg of the round of 16 of the Concacaf Champions Cup against the Eagles of America. Fernando Gago’s team will face the azulcrema team again next week in the return leg.
They will be the first two of three games that will be played between both teams this March. The other will be for the Liga MX where the Rebaño Sagrado finished in ninth place after having played the first 10 rounds of the championship. Those from Guadalajara have 15 points, seven away from first place in the table.
