ONE MORE SETBACK
The Guatemalan National Team lost in a friendly match against Trinidad and Tobago in a game played in Pennsylvania, United States. The team coached by Mexico's Luis Fernando Tena is getting ready to participate in the Gold Cup, also on North American soil.
The match was the first of three planned for the National Team's tour of the North American territory.
A DEBUT IS COMING
Last Friday, coach Luis Fernando Tena issued the call-up list for the preparation matches against the United States prior to the start of the 2023 Gold Cup. Among the main novelties is the name of Aaron Herrera, a 26-year-old player who was born in the United States but is of Guatemalan descent and, with FIFA's authorization, will wear the colors of the Guatemalan National Team.
THE LOSS TO MEXICO
With the Kraken Stadium as the stage, El Tri took the lead after 14 minutes, with a penalty kick that attacker Raúl Jiménez took with authority to give the advantage. The minutes passed and there were only sparks, where goalkeeper Luis Malagón shone with important interventions. In the second half, the game became more complicated for both teams. Mexico was always the one to try to increase the lead, which it did at the end of the match: at 80', Roberto de la Rosa took advantage of a ball near the area to settle the score 2-0.
THOSE CHOSEN TO JOIN THE SHIP
As a replacement for Youstin Salas, the coaching staff of the Tricolor decided to call up Ricardo Peña, a member of the U-23 national team; in place of Óscar Duarte, defender Pablo Arboine of Deportivo Saprissa was called up.
A LAST MINUTE ABSENCE
The national team's medical staff, headed by Alejandro Ramírez, informed through a press release that due to the type of injuries, the recovery time for both players will not allow them to join the national team for the games against Guatemala and Ecuador or the Gold Cup, as they suffered injuries that kept them away from the national team.
