Dicen que las penas del fútbol se pasan con fútbol y Jorge Sánchez puede dar fe de ello. El lateral mexicano anotó su primer gol con la playera del Ajax – en el aplastante 7-1 sobre el Excelsior, en la Eredivisie – y con ello ayudó a borrar un poco la triste imagen que había dejado a mitad de semana en la derrota ante Napoli en la Champions League.
La conversación futbolera hoy en Países Bajos gira en torno a un curioso gol anulado al mexicano Santiago Giménez. El Feyenoord igualó 1-1 ante el NEC Nijmegen, pero bien pudo haberse quedado con la victoria si el árbitro Serdar Gözübüyük no hubiera invalidado la conquista de Bebote en el minuto 95 de juego.
Ricardo Pepi scored Groningen’s sole goal in a 4-1 defeat to top Eredivisie side AZ Alkmaar on Saturday. This was the second Ricardo Pepi Groningen goal in the club’s previous two games.
Before the international break Pepi scored in Groningen’s game vs. Sparta Rotterdam to end his 345-day goal scoring drought. Despite a poor showing during the U.S. friendly vs. Saudi Arabia, Pepi didn’t let that affect his club form.

No fue humo. Una suculenta y muy real oferta del Chelsea por Edson Álvarez estuvo en los escritorios del Ajax, pero al final del mercado de pases europeo el equipo neerlandés decidió bajarle el pulgar a la operación y cortarle las alas al sueño Premier League del mediocampista mexicano.
El mercado de fichajes está por los cielos. Cada vez se paga más por las transferencias de jugadores en el mundo.
Sin embargo, mucho se ha hablado en torno a que jugadores que juegan para ciertas selecciones suelen ser tasados en cantidades exageradas o derechamente infladas en comparación a futbolistas que no los son.
Edson Álvarez has been phenomenal for Ajax and has become an undisputed starter for both club and country.
His recent form and performances have raised interest from clubs around Europe, especially in the Premier League.
The midfielder closed the 2021-22 season playing a total 41 games — scoring five goals and providing one assist — and winning the Eredivisie for the second time along the way.
The Netherlands and the Eredivisie are very familiar places for Mexican players, and the 2022-23 season, for one, will not be an exception.
With the recent transfers of Santiago Gimémez to Feyenoord and Jorge Sánchez to Ajax, we will have four Mexicans playing in the Netherlands first division and for three different teams, all capable of fighting for the title.
Hence, it will be an exciting campaign for Mexicans in the Dutch Eredivisie, and by the looks of it, each player has already started to make an impact for his respective team.
