Rafa Marquez feels like another one that they keep on ice for world cups. Was genuinely shocked to see him still in the Mexico squad.

So true got to be the biggest wimp in football. He's always on the floor and makes a miraculous recovery.Every time I watch a match which David Ospina is involved in, he always needs a medical help at least once. And he never gets subbed.
