Mexican goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa participated in the Primeira Liga match in Portugal between his team, AVS, and Rio Ave, which ended in a 1-1 draw. The match took place at Estadio Dos Arcos. However, Ochoa made a serious mistake that cost his team the chance to take home three points as visitors.
In the 61st minute, Ochoa failed to contain a free kick taken by Ole Pohlmann in favor of Rio Ave. Although the shot did not seem particularly difficult, Ochoa failed to properly catch the ball, allowing Demir Ege Tiknaz to score with a header in the small area. This goal directly affected the scoreline and prevented AVS from winning, leaving them in the third-to-last position in the table, in the relegation zone, with 19 points.
After this mistake, Guillermo Ochoa has faced harsh criticism from fans. Many have questioned his performance and suggested that it is time for the Mexican goalkeeper to consider ending his career. Ochoa is in a difficult situation, as failing to improve with AVS would result in his fourth relegation in Europe, having been relegated with Ajaccio, Granada, and Salernitana in previous seasons.
