why Famous Mexican Soccer Players

Mexican soccer has always been known for producing top-class players and it is amazing that their excellent national team record reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup (twice, 1970 and 1986, both World Cup hosted by Mexico). However, the Mexican national team has always been in the finals and is considered a tough nut to break, despite their lack of silverware. Let’s take a brief look at some of the players who have made Mexico the football power that exists today. -Famous Mexican footballers - Antonio Carbajal Named "El Cinco Copas", or "Five Cups", Antonio Carbajal was the first player to ever participate in 5 World Cups with his national team and was rated in 1998, according to German legend Lothar Matthaus. Carbajal played for Mexico in all 5 of the world cups that took place between 1950 and 1966. -Famous Mexican footballers - Hugo Sanchez Hugo Sanchez was one of the first Mexican footballers to play in Europe at the highest level. He was a Real Madrid player between 1985 and 1992; 7 years in which he scored no less than 253 goals in 283 games, an unparalleled goal / game ratio. He also played for the Mexican national team 60 times, scored 29 goals and became a key player in the 1986 World Cup hosted by Mexico, where his team managed to equalize the quarter-final match originally won in 1970. Hugo Sanchez is currently the manager and coach of the Mexican national team. - Famous Mexican footballers - Jared Borgetti Borgetti was originally from Italy and Mexico and as a striker, he combined the ingenuity and strength of Italian football with enthusiasm and the ability to create Mexican soccer. Despite being an active footballer at the age of 34, he spent most of his time playing in the Mexican league, seven years on Santos Laguna, a time when he managed to score nearly 200 goals in 300 games. But Borgetti's goal-scoring record does not end there, as he has managed to come out on top in the Mexican national team for full points, with 43 goals in 87 games. Currently, Borgetti is playing for Cruz Azul and although he has decided to withdraw from the Mexican national team to win the upcoming World Cup, he has indicated he would like to play for his country for the last time, during the CONCACAF Gold Cup. -Famous Mexican footballers - Claudio Suarez Unlike many other Mexican footballers who will be able to celebrate the New Year with a completely new club in their pay, Claudio Suarez has gone through only 4 teams in all his career: UNAM Pumas (1989-1996), Chivas de Guadalajara (1996-1999), ANL Tigres (1999) -2005) and Chivas USA (2006). He made a strong impression on all of these clubs and many consider him one of the best Mexican players to ever play for his country. Although the extraordinary defender is fighting for the title away from Claudio Suarez, Barcelona's Rafael Marquez, there is a trophy that no one can touch: Claudio Suarez currently holds the record for international matches with the Mexican national team, with an impressive 178 appearances. -Famous Mexican footballers - Rafael Marquez Rafael Marquez is probably Mexico's best-known footballer today, being one of the most important members of the Spanish club FC Barcelona. Marquez’s ability to play as a midfielder or right and defensive midfielder earned him the aura of a “handmade”, able to play wherever his coach would need him most. However, Marquez has recently established himself as a full-back, playing in this position for the Mexican national team and FC Barcelona over the years. At age 28, Rafael Marquez captains the Mexican national team and is considered one of the best players in the country's history, next to popular names such as Hugo Sanchez or Claudio Suarez.
