A letter to the Mexico national team for the 2022 World Cup.
Dear Mexico national team,
I want to say to my beloved Mexico national team and to every single player that it is an honor to follow you.
In good times and bad, you will always have the best fans in the world to support you. I, your biggest fan, want to tell you that we will never stop supporting you always with enthusiasm, panache and joy.
I ask you with all my heart that you go to Qatar to represent us with responsibility and respect, without trauma or taboos, with an open mind – and ready to fight with heart and soul. To show the other teams and the whole world that we want to win the trophy and be successful in world football.
We want to show the world that Mexicans not only excel as individuals, but as a group want to achieve the triumphs that this beautiful country deserves.
Let’s share our songs like cielito bonito, la ola, el chiquiti bum a la bim bom ba with the world. Let the walls of Doha’s magnificent stadiums that await reverberate to the strains of our singing as we attempt to make history.
Every single one of you, every single player is dedicated to show up, train, plan and practice every day to get better and to be great. I want to tell you that the field is eleven against eleven. And then when you have the chance to play, I want you to remember that for our Mexico you have to be strong in mind and in spirit. Never feel worse than other teams and other players who do exactly the same thing as you every day.
I would like to say to our coach and leader of the team that he must see his strategy through to the end, defend it and execute it so that there is no doubt and no uncertainty about the pressure that is so often heard and feared when you are in this position and is in this situation. May your heart be tricolor, green, white and red.
We trust in your many years of experience and your work in the past, but we remind you that it is the present that distinguishes us and gives us honor and glory – do not let us down.
Our hope is in you, Gerardo Daniel Martino.
On the other hand, we always swore by your national team, even when we weren’t lucky. For the same reason, we trust you can make history and be honored by 125 million Mexicans.
Just remember: Yes, we can! Si se puede!
