Goodbye Josh! – The English striker returns to the homeland of “football”

Team Mexicanos and team Internacionalitos had another memorable game last Saturday during the weekly Clásico at Benio Juarez Stadium. It was the last game for English striker Josh.

Both teams relied on a classical 4-4-2 formation, with Josh (for the first and last time) and Wen being the captains:
