He has a very popular nickname in football and, in some cases, even undeserved. They say ‘Magician‘and he certainly has some sparkles in his repertoire, which are forbidden frequent.
Due to his extensive career in Gallos, Chivas (where he was multi-champion) and now Cruz Azul, one might think he is a veteran, but he is almost 25 years old.
Orbelín Pineda asks for a clue, once and for all ‘Magician‘he wants to point out that it is not one of so many promises that fade over time. It is time to confirm that we are not in the presence of a “charlatan”.
From the last tournament before the celestial disaster in the semifinals, the native of Coyuca de Catalán, Guerrero, presents a fullness football that does not go unnoticed and even in the national team, Gerardo Martino saw him as a starter in some games.
He is a complete footballer who can play in different delimitations. He has ball recovery, he is generator, extremely capable in melee shooting, shoots from medium range, steps on both areas and covers a lot of land.
His problem, like many footballers, is regularity. Orbelín was late to make the leap in quality, it seems, is finally consolidating.
It’s already out of some Olympic Games (Rio 2016) for an incomprehensible decision of the technician of that time Raul Gutierrez, so the World Cup Qatar It appears as a new opportunity that you cannot miss.
Pineda is called to be one of the players leading the generational change in Tricolorbecause he has all the arguments to become an important part of the team Martino and not in a simple complement.
Orbelín has no other alternative: it is forbidden to disappear for such long periods. The “magicians” have the obligation to ratify their virtues every day, otherwise they become simple quack.
