Tokyo, Japan. Mexico has another Olympic metal. Tricolor took the 73rd medal in history and second in men’s soccer. Jaime Lozano could be seated at the same table as Luis Fernando Tina. Jimmy and El Flacco are the only technicians who managed to climb to the podium, the difference being that Tina won the gold in London 2012, while Lozano had to settle for the bronze.

In Mexico, the Aztecs in 1968 reached the semi-finals and lost third place to Japan, while in Atlanta 1996 they agreed On the second stage, but Nigeria left them far from the medals.

Tokyo 2020 was different. Jimmy endowed the group with talent, chose the appropriate reinforcements and after two and a half years of work the reward arrived.

Mexico did not have the favorite sign, however, the three-colored from the first group came out alive after beating France 4-1, losing to Japan 2-1 and beating South Africa 3-0.
