Former Manchester United and Real Madrid striker Javier "Chicharito" Hernández suffered the unenviable fate of missing a crucial penalty in the game that saw his side's Liga MX campaign end on Sunday. Hernández, who made 103 appearances for United, scoring 37 times before a loan spell at Madrid, was tasked with the all-important penalty that would put Guadalajara ahead late on in their quarterfinal second leg tie against Cruz Azul.
"It's the same sport, but the culture is obviously so different, and the gravitas is there in both. The passion is there, but there is a sense that the differences are stark. "English football, it feels more like a fight. A Mexican football game feels like a dance, and I knew, 'Oh wow, that feels different enough to us than Wrexham that we could tell a really beautiful story.'"
