Andres Guardado warns, ‘We can become our own worst enemy’

Mexico captain Andres Guardado had some words of warning for his teammates ahead of El Tri’s second World Cup match against South Korea.

“We haven’t earned anything. They don’t give us more points for beating Germany,” said Guardado in his pregame press conference. “We can become our own worst enemy.”

Mexico have a tendency of playing to their opponent’s level, even if that means going against a team that on paper is less talented. As oppose to the game against Germany, Juan Carlos Osorio’s men will be forced to take initiative of the match.
