The debate over who is the best goalkeeper in the history of Mexico seems to have ended after the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) published the tally of the 50 best goalkeepers of all time and there are the Mexicans, Guillermo Ochoa next to Jorge Campos.
According to the criteria used, Italian Gianluigi Buffon He is number one with 357 aggregate points, 97 more than second-placed Spaniard Iker Casillas and 138 more than third-placed German Manuel Neuer. The top five scores are completed by Czech Petr Cech and Dutchman Edwin van der Sar.
For his part, the Paraguayan Jose Luis Chilavert is the best Latin American in the International Federation with 146 points in ninth place, while Costa Rican Keylor Navas is the best in the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Football (Concacaf) with 93 points in 21st place.
According to the IFFHS classification, Jorge Campos is better than Guillermo Ochoa as he is in 34th place with 62 points, almost double the score compared to Seria A’s Salernitana goalkeeper, who has 38 points, and sits in 48th place.
The determination of the world’s best goalkeeper by the IFFHS rankings of all time was done analogously to that of the world’s best goalkeeper of the decade or century, so there is a uniform system for the future.
From the annual World Goalkeeper Rankings (resulting from global voting), the IFFHS has taken into consideration the “Top 20” of each year and will award points for each place. Thus, the first receives 20 points, the second 19 points, the third 18 points. If the annual world ranking includes more than 20 goalkeepers, goalkeepers ranked 21 and above will not receive points.
Through a video shared on the social networks of Christian Martinolihe brody insisted that within the national team don’t want to make changes and they are afraid to cut the stages that experienced players have experienced, since not only Ochoa should be “fired” from the Aztec team, but also from other profiles.
Campos’ answer came after David Medrano asked his opinion on the Mexican goalkeepers who are currently competing with Memo Ochoa for a position in the national team goal. He Immortal insisted that calls from Hector Moreno and of Raul Jimenez – with Ochoa – are redundant in this new process.
“We don’t think about the future, forget Ochoa, there’s Moreno, Raúl Jiménez, there’s Herrera, so we’re still falling behind,” he explained.
But one of the things that bothered the brody It was about that within the selection and in the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) do not visualize a real change, but are afraid to try with players who play in the lower categories of the national team.
Jorge Campos insisted on the fact that the discourse of change remains only in “we must see” since nothing concrete is done to achieve it: “We started again and ‘we must see’, don’t be afraid to see the futurethat’s the problem, that we have the panic to project something in the future, ”he condemned.
