True to his provocative style, Álvaro Morales opened fire after the Mexican National Team’s draw with an editorial that sent shivers down Guadalajara’s spine. For the “Brujo”, the 0-0 draw was not Portugal’s merit, but a direct fault of the red and white base. The main target: Armando “La Hormiga” González. “The guy nails the goal and the Azteca Stadium falls down… but the left foot…”, said El Brujo Morales.
But he didn’t stop there. The “Brujo’s” statistical analysis was an x-ray of pain for Rebaño fans: he branded Piojo Alvarado as the worst in complete passes and assured that goalkeeper “Tala” Rangel was “zurr…o de miedo”. He even lashed out at Javier Aguirre, calling him a “tactical illiterate” for not knowing how to take advantage of his players’ profiles. The whole Mexico vs. Portugal debate in Los Jefes here.
The debate of the 9: Raúl Jiménez or the “Ant”?
The table was divided when Fernando Ceballos came out. The “Chiva Mayor” defended González, asserting that he is the striker with the most eye for goal at present, even if he missed the clearest one.
For his part, “King” John Charles Gabriel I brought a dose of balance (and a touch of elegance) to the debate.
Although he acknowledged that “La Hormiga” needs to work on his Hugo Sánchez-style finishing, Juan Carlos emphasized that Raúl Jiménez is still the most complete striker due to his ability to hold and generate play.
However, the “King” also made a criticism that left us wondering: it gives him “hives” to see a national team with up to three naturalized players on the field at the same time (Quiñones, Berterame and Fidalgo). What’s up with that!
Fidalgo and Rangel: Did they pass the test?
Although “Vasco” Aguirre was satisfied with Alvaro Fidalgo’s personality, the table was not so benevolent.
Juan Carlos Gabriel I, with stopwatch in hand, pointed out the Spanish team’s turnovers that put El Tri in danger.
As for Rangel, although he was creditable with his feet, the rejection of the cross he made near the end of the game was described as a “bad decision” that could have cost him dearly.
An authoritative production
This level of debate is only possible thanks to the trajectory of its hosts, who have made Los Jefes Deportes the program of reference for the Hispanic audience in the United States.
From Oklahoma to California, the voice of Álvaro Morales and company weighs heavily because, as their intro says: “We don’t come here to look good, we come here to say what resonates with them”.
This installment, presented by Nueva Network and QuéOnnda, leaves us with a question in the air: Are we celebrating a mediocre draw or are there really pants for the 2026 World Cup?
The episode is now available on QuéOnnda’s YouTube channel as well as Apple Podcast and Spotify, where you can also listen to other titles promoted by QuéOnnda and Nueva Network, such as Nueva Jugada.
Do you think the “Brujo” is right and Chivas are a danger to El Tri, or does he simply have it in for Ceballos’ team?
