Rafa Marquez’s second challenge in this new process was for a figure from the MX League. Víctor Guzmán gave him the match to the Mexican team.
Jairo Vélez advanced the Peruvian national team in the friendly match that was played at the Sports Illustrated Stadium, but in the 49th minute, Víctor Guzmán put the final draw in the scoring.
In this sense, the “Toro” pushes strongly in this new process. In the first steps of Rafa Márquez, Guzmán has already advanced in the struggle for a place among the central Aztecs who contribute in the offensive.
“Well, very well, the truth very happy, first of all for returning to have minutes in the national team and very happy also for my first goal,” Guzmán told TV Azteca.
Víctor Guzmán acknowledged that coming to the Mexican national team was not a simple task. his return to El Tri was the result of much individual work with Rayados de Monterrey.
“Many things, excitement; the truth is that I had a very complicated year last year and it touched me to work the double and, therefore, I think that many feelings, the truth, very beautiful all,” he added.
Víctor Guzmán believes that it is not easy to work in national teams. The footballer of Monterrey explained that the adaptation is very different than at club level. In the selection you have little time to integrate with players you don’t know.
“I think that well, sometimes we look a lot at the scoring, but I think that sometimes it’s complicated to play so many players that in reality we’re nothing else, but we don’t know each other,” he concluded.

Víctor Guzmán debuted with the Mexican national team in April 2023. Diego Cocca was the coach who gave him the opportunity to uniform himself with the colours of El Tri.
Since then, the Toro has played 7 matches with the Mexican national team. In his previous matches against Guatemala, Uruguay, Canada, Panama and two against the United States, Guzmán had not been able to contribute in the offensive sector of the field. Peru was its first victim internationally.
