It was announced earlier this month that Argentinian Diego Cocca was selected by the Mexican Soccer Federation to manage the Mexican National Soccer Team. This is following the departure of Gerardo “El Tata” Martino after a disappointing World Cup performance in Qatar.
Cocca leaves the Club de Fútbol Tigres (Tigres football club) where he managed the team for a little over a month. Bouncing from club to club, Cocca was a member of clubs such as Club Atlético River Plate, Unió Esportiva Lleida and Atlas where he would later coach. Cocca began his managerial career in 2008 with the Argentinean club Godoy Cruz Antonio Tomba.
