In the absence of another Concacaf Octagonal match to define the countries qualified for Qatar 2022, the Mexican National Team faces different doubts regarding the role of the team and the performance shown by Gerardo Tata Martino. That is why the idea that Miguel Piojo Herrera would be the right substitute for Tata began to grow.

Recently, the current technical director of Tigres spoke about the Tri and the first thing he said was about the Argentinian's health. Since the start of the qualifying matches for Qatar 2022, Martino has been absent from three different matches, the most recent being against Honduras last Sunday, March 27.

Therefore, Piojo Herrera pointed out that if he is not in optimal condition, he should leave office. In an interview for ESPN's Now or Never program, the Mexican coach went against Tata's lack of commitment to watch the national team's matches.

Herrera began defending his work, which until now has him with one foot in the 2022 World Cup; however, he demanded greater commitment and among them his absences for health issues came out.
