The countdown to the World Cup on June 11 has already begun and the controversy in El Tri is more alive than ever. Duilio Davino, director of selections, made it clear in the new episode of the podcast La Jugada Final that names such as Álvaro Fidalgo, Julián Quiñones and Germán Berterame are on the list of “selectable” players. For the board, there are no labels: they are all Mexicans, period. Will this be the formula to transcend? You can listen to the podcast HERE.
Under the production of Nueva Network and QuéOnnda, this episode brings us a mix of wisdom and freshness with the conduction of two greats: the master Heriberto Murrieta, with that legendary trajectory that endorses him as one of the most respected voices of sports journalism in Mexico, and the energy of Kary Zambrano, who always dotted the i’s and crosses the t’s and crosses the t’s.

Hidden interests in the Tri?
To close with controversy, Mauro Lainez suggested that if his brother Diego Lainez does not go to the World Cup, it will be because of “greater interests”.
Heriberto Murrieta and Kary Zambrano described these statements as inopportune, but they leave us wondering: who is really pulling the strings in the national team?
The new episode of La Jugada Final is now available on all audio platforms, such as Apple Podcast and Spotify, where you can also listen to other titles promoted by QuéOnnda and Nueva Network, such as Los Jefes Deportes.
