About the Documentary

He was once a young footballer in Mexico City who would later become an international record-breaking star at Real Madrid. His story has broken barriers and is definitely inspiring; certainly a gifted legend who’s life must be brought to the big screen. Hugo Sanchez’s story must be told as the greatest ever Mexican soccer player who proved himself with a unique and unstoppable talent. Not Maradona; not Pelé. He is HUGO SANCHEZ.

Hugo Sánchez was, to put it in a single phrase, the best Mexican soccer player of all time. He was more of a goal scorer tan a tackler, barely touching the ball he would simply score a goal.

This was one spectacular specialist who beat all records (the famous 38 scores in the Spanish league – La Liga – for the Real Madrid Team) who became an inspiration to legendary soccer players of likes of Cristiano Ronaldo.
