A scandal shakes the Mexican soccer team before the World Cup
After defeating Scotland 1-0 at the Azteca Stadium, Mexico added another scandal to the 'Osorio Era': a group of players went partying before leaving for Europe to continue their preparation for the 2018 World Cup.
Mexican media woke up on Tuesday with the news, and it affected the internal dynamics of the National Team to the point that Rafael Marquez intervened and had a serious conversation with the involved players.
John Sutcliffe from ESPN spoke with the captain of the Mexican national team, who confirmed the tense meeting that all the members of the team had before their first training session in Copenhagen.
Within the privacy of the squad, the players under Juan Carlos Osorio are sure that they did not break any previously established rules. However, 'Rafa' Marquez believes that the scandal damages the team's image.
So far, the Mexican Football Federation has not issued an official statement regarding the incident with the Mexican team, who will face Denmark before the 2018 World Cup.
