Jared Borgetti is the most prolific scorer in the history of the Mexican national team, a significant accomplishment in a country where soccer is more a religion than a sport.
But his record is now endangered. When the national team gathers in two weeks, Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez will enter the training camp with 43 international goals, three shy of Borgetti's mark. And with Mexico scheduled to play as many as 10 games over the next four months, the question is no longer will Hernandez break the record, but when.
"It could happen at any moment," Borgetti, now a commentator on ESPN Deportes, said with a shrug.
