    Of all players in the last decade, there is no one that steps up to the occasion and delivers his greatest performance in the World Cup quite like Guillermo Ochoa. How did a relatively unknown keeper from the Mexico’s first division league become one of the biggest world cup performers of all time? And just how good is he really?

    The way you described his career made me really appreciate him.
    In the Mexican media when he left to Europe he was seen as a goalie with no handling ability (always punching the ball out) and a failure since he never played in a big team and only time he did he couldn’t bench an aging Kameni. And they would only talk about his failures not his accomplishments.

    The same could be said of Navas. Ask people to name one player from Costa Rica, and most people only know Navas and maybe Joel Campbell who played a few games for Arsenal. Without Keylor, the Costa Rica team wouldn't have made it to these many WC appearances. Even Neymar preferred Navas in goal to Donnaruma. BTW they all trained together at PSG, so he knows which keeper stops him the most.

    Im not gonna lie, the moment I saw Argentina was in a same group as Mexico, the first nightmarish thought i had was this guy being the reason Argentina wouldn't even make it pass the group stage.
    And that almost happened. It took The GOAT to score and then Mexico was slightly less impenetrable. This guy is truly a legend in the World Cup for the past decade.
    His spidey senses and acrobatics is one of the best. If he was born in Europe, he would 100% be a starter for some big club. Imagine if he had ball control training since young age + his natural gifted skills, he would be easily on par with Neuer, Casillas, Buffon, Cech, Van Der Sar, Cesar etc in my opinion.

      Mexico lost to Argentina bcuz the Mexican coach was an Argentinian fool who put in an alternative team (Mexico B for example) with a defensive stance 5-3-1-1 to make sure Mexico didn't take complete control of the ball n beat his home team.. Mexico never plays defensive, so why start now?? You guessed it.. Mexico always plays 4-4-1-1 n 4-4-2 so it was obvious.. Argentina always fears Mexico bcuz Mexico almost always beats Brazil in any age category n Argentina struggles against Brazil.. Mexico doesn't fear these 2 teams n actually prefers to forever be the underdogs bcuz winning by cheating bcuz of ratings is never kool.. The ppl running the Mexican league care only about money n keeping Mexico as a team to just get rich off of like in the Aztec vs Spain days, trust me..

    Along with the adjustment, or lack thereof, of not really becoming a sweeper keeper, one major thing left out of the video was the 2011 scandal of clenbuterol “doping” that him and 4 other Mexican players suffered around the time of that year’s Gold Cup. I think it impacted him the most because of the heavy rumored move to PSG. So he basically settled for Ajaccio. He was proven innocent after but still. If he would’ve made that move to PSG, I’m sure he either would’ve become a club legend or made a move to an even bigger club in Europe. Glad to see he at least got recognition around the world due to the World Cup. He’s more praised around the world than his own country, largely in part to coming from Mexico’s biggest and most hated club, Club América. Glad to have two pictures with him as I’ve followed him his entire career. Huge Club América and Mexican national team fan here.

It just shows how his talent is being overshadowed by not having the best teams (defense). He's always done everything he could as a goalkeeper in his position and it shows.

    If you think Ochoa is good, you should do one about Jorge Campos, the best GK in all Mexico's history, idol of Iker Casillas. He was a GK ahead of his time, no jokes.
    Plot Twist: He not only played as GK , but he also played as Forward and scored 46 goals. Sometimes he played half time as GK and another half time as FW. FIFA made a new rule on 1994's world cup because of him... forbidding the goalkepers to change positions during a game.

    Ochoa was a star in 2009 and would have had a great World Cup in 2010 at the age of 25. One yr before that World Cup, Mexico re-hired the same coach from World Cup 2002. This coach called back his starting goalkeeper from 2002 to start in World Cup 2010. This goalkeeper was 37 and had not been called up by any other coaches since 2002. He ended up starting for Mexico in World Cup 2010 when I believe the world would have gotten to see Ochoa at a better age to atract better clubs. This decision was seen as a shock in Mexico because Ochoa was going through an impressive moment.
