Mexican National Team facing Qatar 2022
The purpose of the panel was to discuss current issues related to the Mexican National Soccer Team, with a view to the upcoming World Cup to be held in Qatar from November 20 to December 18 of this year.
Specifically, the sports journalists debated the soccer performance of the national team's coach, Gerardo "Tata" Martino, and the role of the Mexican National Team in the group stage against Argentina, Poland and Saudi Arabia, among other topics.
Sports panel
Federico Torres, director of the Communication and Journalism career said that "the panel touched not only sports topics but also socio-cultural ones. It is clear that the Mexican National Team is a cult topic for our country and the recommendation there was to be more loyal and objective in the evaluation of their results".
Andrés Vázquez, coordinator of the event and student of Communication and Journalism, shared that "it was an event that aroused controversy, exchange of points of view, but at the end of the day it opened the panorama of what to expect about the National Team in the World Cup".
The Universidad Panamericana thanks the students of Communication and Journalism for the initiative of organizing the sports panel "The Mexican National Team in front of Qatar 2022" and invites the student community to participate in future panels.
