Mexican football has once again ignited off the pitch after Carlos Hermosillo revealed an unknown incident with Jorge Sánchez, who decided to confront him following a series of public criticisms of his performance. During the program "La Última Palabra", the former striker surprised everyone by recounting that the current PAOK defender sought him out directly to complain about his television comments. According to his explanation, the encounter was tense, albeit brief, and made it clear that the player disagreed with the criticisms being made about his level of play. Carlos Hermosillo recounted that Sánchez "confronted and challenged him" in an awkward moment that had not come to light until now. However, the analyst also detailed that he remained calm and responded that there was no personal issue, but that he was simply doing his job by giving his opinion on football. The origin of the conflict lies in the constant criticism that the former forward has directed at the defender's performance. Hermosillo has been firm in pointing out significant errors in his game, especially in his marking and the quality of his crosses when he joins the attack. Even after the confrontation, he reaffirmed his stance by stating that the player "could be a much better player", making it clear that he will not change his analysis despite the complaint. This incident reflects the pressure Jorge Sánchez is under as he tries to establish himself both in Europe and with the Mexican national team heading towards the 2026 World Cup. The divided opinions on his performance have created a tense environment where media criticism can escalate to a personal level. Far from becoming a major scandal, the confrontation remained just a display of the player's character and Hermosillo's firm stance, who has not stopped pointing out what he considers mistakes on the field.
