translated from Spanish: Matt Miazga mocks striker Diego Lainez stature during friendly match

Photography / Getty Images United States.-the friendly match between the teams of soccer of Mexico and United States, which took place yesterday in Nashville, caused anger among the fans of the PRI for two reasons: first, because the result did not favor him and secondly, because one of the American players made mockery of the stature of Diego Lainez.
It’s Matt Miazga, who six minutes before Tyler Adams scored the only goal of the match, fought with Lainez a balloon, which ended with infringement in favor of United States.
The controversy occurred since in that scene, the U.S. faced Diego, making a gesture with the hand in order to make fun of his stature.
The Mexican striker, who, aged 18, was debuting with Tri, did not react to the provocation of Miazga, but several of his colleagues, for example, Edson Álvarez did.
The action got the mood of the party and minutes later was expelled Angel Zaldivar by a strong entry, what took the United States to mark the difference.
The photography of the moment that Miazga mocks the Mexican viralizó on social networks, given the obvious physical difference; the central defender is 26 centimeters higher than his rival: 1.93 meters in front of 1.67.
Alvarez described as “cowardly” behaviour of the American, but the own Lainez preferred to downplay what happened on the Court, ensuring that he was not offended.
Meanwhile, Ricardo Ferretti, technical acting of Mexico, declared: “the dime and direte, all this talk about two meters with my beloved chaparrito central, it serves him, will remember the rest of your life and will know better next time”.
