OOJ: Guillermo Ochoa

very few things or people can hold my attention for 90 minutes, but one who succeeds at doing this is Guillermo Francisco Ochoa, goalie for the Mexican national team in this year's World Cup in Brazil, who has definitely established himself as the star and savior of the Mexican team this year (no thanks to you, Rafa). this 28-yr-old native of Guadalajara (where i lived for a few months!) debuted with Club América a few years ago and spent his last year playing for a French team and is now a free agent. Ochoa punched out, hugged, and blocked countless goal attempts while looking cool as an otter pop straight from the cooler. Mexico sadly hit the end of their World Cup run today after two successful penalty shots by the Netherlands, but hopefully Ochoa's performance this summer will bring him more opportunities in the international arena.
