Mexico's coach may be slammed by TV analysts and former players, but one of his most laureated colleagues praised his work ahead of a crucial tie.
That collleague who praised coach Juan Carlos Osorio was none other than Joachim Löw, who analyzed the clash between Die Mannschaft and El Tri in the semi-final stage of the FIFA Confederations Cup.
Speaking after his team's victory against Cameroon, Löw praised Mexico's playing style under Osorio, even if the Mexican press is not satisfied with Osorio's rotation policy.
"Mexico is a very, very unconfortable team to play against, and they have top-caliber players. It will be a good test for us, especially because we're not used to play against North American countries. They play a different kind of football, and it will be really good for us," Löw stated.
Considering friendly and competitive games, Juan Carlos Osorio's record as Mexico's boss is one of the best in El Tri's history, which will force the Germans to take matters seriously.
Löw also referred to his team's performance in the competition, which was also criticized due to the lack of big names in his roster. According to the German boss, this tournament has served its purpose for Die Mannschaft, as they wanted to test young players in a top-caliber tournament.
"I'm really proud of this team. Being among the top four teams in this competition is something we didn't expect," the coach concluded.
