A lot has been made of Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi being the first players to play in 6 men's World Cup's this summer. But there is one more legend who could join them, Mexico's Guillermo Ochoa. At 41 years old, he is currently playing in Cyprus of all places for AEL Limassol. He served as a backup keeper for Mexico most recently in the Gold Cup. Mexico plays and hosts South Africa in the opener for the World Cup, on June 11, at the legendary Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. How awesome would it be if he not only made the squad, but was able to get some minutes between the sticks in that opening game? It would be a brilliant and emotional beginning to the World Cup. He would be the first player to do it with Messi and CR7 opening up their games a few days later. Attached is one of my favorite NFTs on the Panini platform. Incredible Mexico Team color match from the Saga set. Buena suerte, Leyenda!!!!!!
