Jaime Lozano does not change his mind and firmly believes that Guillermo Ochoa has what it takes to continue protecting the goal of the Mexican team indefinitely.
And in an interview for ESPN, the Tri coach praised Paco Memo and expressly asked the journalist about whether He is still the goalkeeper of the Mexican team he nodded and replied:
“Yes, of course, it’s in Italy, in a big league, he is in Europe, the only goalkeeper who has been there. And without a doubt (it will be) as long as he shows the level to be at and the enthusiasm… He seems like a rookie because of the enthusiasm, the desire with which he comes.”
Immediately afterwards, “Jimmy” assessed that his goalkeeper still has professional ambitions, despite having more than 20 years in El Tri.
“Being on the national team for so long tells you about dedication, professionalism and, above all, an ambition to continue achieving important professional and personal goals,” he mentioned.
“It is not easy to be selected. People think ‘they call me up, I go and that’s it’. Yes, he has many benefits, many privileges, but when you call up a player, normally the teammates have three, four more days of vacation, they can clear themselves, they can disconnect,” he concluded.
It is worth remembering that a few days ago Lozano toured Europe to visit some of those selected who play in the Old Continent and Paco Memo was one of them.
