Chicharito Content With Mexico’s Output

Mexico were unable to match their result from one match to the next as El Tri tied Venezuela 1-1 days after beating Paraguay 3-1.

However, Mexico star Javier Hernandez said the team walks away content regardless.

“We’re happy because we improved,” Hernandez told reporters. “The bottom line is these are friendly games and we have to take away some positives from them.”

Even though wins and losses are not important in friendlies, Hernandez said there is some comfort in knowing that Mexico won one match and did enough to win another.

“I believe the results were positive, winning one and tying one and utlimately we had chances to win the game,” he said.

For Hernandez, who scored twice against Paraguay, the matches also served as a way to get to know Mexico manager Jose Manuel De La Torre better and to know what he expects from players.

“The way the team works is very important,” he said. “We know these games are for preparation and to get to know the manager. We have to work hard in our club in order to be on the national team. Nobody has a spot secured.”
