all eyes on the Mexican national team on
their run to the people World Cup in
Russia faced with intense scrutiny from
their supporters and the press to face
the nightmares of World Cups past they
are like things like gods the people's
means from those layers as savers they
understand and they leave Utah
it's the way we are deserving to have a
great tournament we know each other for
a long long time
the team need to have a really important
tournament and enjoy a big moment for
the country because from any Mexican
football is more than sport it is a
mission no I drink Americanos Cano Vega
Mexico if you go by numbers yes Mexico
is America's diamond if you put Mexico
in the stadium it will out draw any
other team club or international that
there is in the United States he's not
enough saying we need to be in good
shape we need to be in the best shape of
our work lives the most important the
scaling of the humans l-alamin el campo
la la cabeza de sangre de todo para para
una y para el nombre de
shinbei oh sorry no stamina mentally
Daddy O Muhammad Ali Ali the same
company with the trio of Mexican stars
and my former manager representing MLS's
best chance at World Cup glory I didn't
have to go far to find sellout crowds on
Mexico's send-off tour across the US
over the last 10 years Mexico has
actually played more than four times
more friendlies in the US than Mexico
itself so I've come here to Los Angeles
to explore a dynamic unlike anywhere in
world football and discover for sure
maybe what's always been true America's
team might just be el tree hora yucky
like Villa del Oro see 19 20 year old if
you get guys at their young at the prime
the legally get better and this what we
want
I mean we live here this is what we want
to make it better you know cuz I want to
go to the games to where I can see a
great teams and nobody is looking down
upon it because they play for a galaxy
or LA FC or any other team the fact it's
rivalry and have Mexicans and their
prime like the Bordeaux sons brothers
even though they play for garlic's not
LMC you know it's good
[Music]
[Applause]
after getting injured in MLS Cup 2012
against the galaxy here at StubHub
Center I started doing media work and
Sebastien Salazar was the first to reach
out to me when he was in Houston with
CSN there to give me an opportunity to
do pre and post game live so now that
I'm doing a full time I had to hit up an
old friend and meet up at the sub center
again this time for the first ever el
tráfico
[Applause]
let's be honest about why vellus paid
what he is and why is here because he's
Mexican he's a huge draw and he
delivered maybe there are other players
better than him
but is there a player better than him
for LA FC no it's per it's literally
perfect it's almost like there should be
designated players in Mexican designated
players because there's such a value to
for that DP with this fanbase if we're
being honest about who watches soccer in
this country look at ratings Mexican
Americans watch soccer in this country
overwhelmingly more so than almost
everybody else combined and whether it's
on in on in Spanish or on in English if
you want to cover an MLS game and you
can't talk to the people on the field
that speak Spanish can you really cover
it like I think that's a really big
question that everybody needs to be
asking themselves if you're only telling
the stories of MLS through
english-speaking players are you really
catching the full 360 carlos vela deals
with this back and forth in the media
and the press every day in English and
in Spanish I caught up with Carlos at La
of sees new training ground and although
imperfect did my best to try to speak
Spanish okay in the end we own
Cuauhtemoc I said oh yeah persona que
las palabras que minion so malas nobody
move the scene in la camera siempre come
on contrast how are you finding Los
Angeles so far Spaniel English qualcare

father a two-time World Cup legend 4l
tree we're hit combos help start MLS
right here for the galaxy in 96 never
one to shy away from the flash and style
of his neon goalkeeper kiss
rumor has it after seeing 80,000 Philip
the Rose Bowl for his first game the
next day he got MLS to buy him a Ferrari
like I said forget the ball so Sanchez
Pavel Pardo echo your body when you feel
welcome
LA Galaxy got lucky they don't put your
tool random we call project together for
alignment we're looking for something
get up around but I appreciate the
parasol sonido for us it was this town
sonido even is supported in initial
alignment listen kiddo you okay don't
make you okay
don't you say to the haters that maybe
say MLS isn't the right place for
Mexican national team players or isn't
the right place to prepare you for a
tournament like the World Cup
well I think they the important thing is
they mentality for how you come here
because of course I can come to LA and
enjoy the city and enjoy their life and
don't play you know is I can do it but I
come here to be an important player I'm
working really hard to show every week
I'm good and I try to be the best player
in the league what I'll camp oops a
problem which is even on a principle I
see you muchas cosas nationally our
country viva muchas cosas were your
opposite students low-income point
opposite this movie Savoy India and fool
Islamic referral fee see comment
documented technique commenced a deposit
earliest movie competitive
carlos vela who's gonna be a star maybe
from Mexico Russia is playing in MLS
not only people on this side of the
border dues people on the other side of
the border have to pay attention and
that's great because it further links
just the players and the leagues and the
teams for the countries like now I'm
talking with Mexican colleagues at ESPN
Deportes on Twitter on email on TV shows
about our league probably 15 years ago
20 years ago when the MLS was created
then 10 years ago probably in Mexico we
see this league as retirement Lea know
the players that came here in those
years came here for the final years of
their own careers but now that's
changing nationalism sells it sells
everywhere it sells in this country it
certainly is gonna sell in Mexico
there's an attitude from many in the
Mexican press that is MLS is beneath us
soccer's ours everything else can be
theirs but soccers ours I think that the
players like yo Santos Jonathan dos
Santos Carlos Vela are looking at those
points and of course that la is very
close to Mexico to think that in their
mid-20s or 28 29 years they can come to
this league and not just make money but
play at a good level some people have
taken their comments to say that MLS
isn't the right league for these players
or
Mexican national team players do you
think that's a fair i well and thank you
for asking me because I think I was
miscoded
Juan Carlos Osorio at the profane played
for him with the Chicago Fire and we
stayed in touch over the years got to go
see him firsthand at AT&T Stadium in
Dallas and see it from a different
perspective just by the bench with all
the obligations of the press and the
pressure leading to Russia he was able
to take a little bit of time out to sit
down with me for coffee in Los Angeles I
have no qualms I have no questions that
Giovanni Jonathan and Carlos will be
hopefully in good form at the moment
when we have to make the final decisions
there's a saying in Mexico that of the
Mexican people demand more of the
national team coach and the president
and it's probably true it's really
probably true and in Mexico there's a
lot of pride about Mexican soccer and
Mexican coaches and the Mexican League
first of all his Colombian not Mexican
no so whenever you know that it's
foreigner and he's in charge of the most
popular team more than Chivas more than
America with the Mexico national team
represents everyone then you can
understand a bit stuff to be foreigner
when solo place you never know who is
gonna play and the people doesn't know
really how's the style of the Mexican
team
I saw him deal with the Mexican star
yeah we brought the biggest of the
market mo day-to-day and I could tell
his personality at the time was such
that he could command his respect and
temos a guy that he told me that wants
that he's from the neighborhood where if
your car gets told ya or your radio gets
stolen you go there to buy back his hood
to get it back so naros a tepee toy new
jersey no Kerry Elmo's in
yokel cambium which is a mentally a
second award occurs to me no see you see
you closed okay no my you are a
neighbor's in here yeah if this group is
able to have success in Russia how will
they get it done and what is success for
Mexico in Russia you probably have heard
quinto partido 5th month the Quinto
Party no the 5th game is this thing
that's like hung over Mexican soccer for
so long
inter partido for Mexicans means to
reach the quarterfinals in a World Cup
in the past six World Cups Mexico has
reached the round of 16 but they will
always eliminated and 2002 was very
painful for the Mexicans against the US
since 94 Germany Brazil Mexico the only
teams that have gone every year to the
World Cup had gotten out of the group
phase every year Germany and Brazil have
hardware to show for it
Mexico has nothing Mexico does not have
one quarterfinal appearance and every
single year it's something different but
it's always something devastated the
person who remedies that the person that
solves that and fixes that for a nation
oh my god he will either never be let in
new mexico again or he will be that the
patron foreign saint of Mexican soccer
san juan carlos santos oreo how do you
think you will feel
at the first match of when the National
handsome
I have asked myself many times the same
question at that moment I will feel we
have done everything let's see what the
game brings today I remember playing
with wow so jealous but I remember going
through even just an airport and Mexican
people who are either traveling or
working there would drop everything quit
their job just like leave their post or
whatever they're just big family cars
abandoned on the streets going to girls
like a stroller to take a photo and I've
never seen anything like the sort of
love and admiration and obsession for
him where does that passion come from
and how how does that make sense I don't
know if you fully appreciate the
national team like you do when you're a
fan of your your country in another
country and this is the great thing
about Mexico playing here this is why I
draw such crowds here
you've given a chance to be back with
your people and you Jones for that you
need that one when you're away you know
I wish people understood like the
immigrants experience more dude it's
hard man my mom left everything back
home everything she knew to come here to
like see what she could make of herself
and if you've never left everything you
know you just can't possibly appreciate
what immigrants in this country go
through Mexican American or not and how
much a Thai home means
and soccer is that so yeah quality book
is a deity and he represented that shirt
that made me feel close to something
that I'm somehow still far away from so
I see that guy walking through an
airport yeah I'm gonna hop out of my car
and try and get a picture it means that
much to me they always support us in but
mom and Sue they are always there trying
to help in us and maybe sometimes they
are not in a good moment in their life
for
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
mundo the mass audience in television
pero para otros a few ways not like any
more thing although mexicanos image
Sonique
I'll ask you like my animals and I'll
ask you stones here and Oh something is
and on this here
no I your and which is you can it
tallest I see and typical comments
understand some years now your part I'll
tell you is Mecca Connecticut for kudos
come on Twitter noise it's when I went
at the rivalry there would compete to be
better than the US in soccer and we will
play against them we try to beat them
after that there is plenty enough
respect from the players to the players
from the players to the Americans and
from the place to us as a country I
think you see a real opportunity here
for soccer to be this kind of through
rivalry almost because that's what it is
right it's that great us-mexico rivalry
but through the rivalry be this unifying
force at a time of like real division I
think it's amazing I think I just have a
really cool moment in time in that LA
specifically an MLS has been able to
create these contrasting forces within a
bigger picture of contrasting forces
again we find ourselves in a place where
like hey soccer is in a position to tear
down some walls with the unifying bid to
host World Cup 2026 for in between
Canada the US and Mexico set to be
decided this summer Los Angeles in some
ways is a perfect testing ground from
MLS the US and bigger than the mall I'll
tree to me the best part of being here
in LA and the u.s. is that home team can
mean more than one thing
