Futbol Picante (translation: Spicy Football or Spicy Soccer)[1] is a Mexican sports television show in Spanish which covers mostly Mexican football.

The show is mostly hosted by José Ramón Fernández;[2] Heriberto Murrieta, Ciro Procuna, Alejandro de la Rosa, Ángel García Toraño and Álvaro Morales also serve as hosts when José Ramón Fernández is not present. The show has various analysts ranging from experienced journalists to former footballers.

Fútbol Picante runs for 60 minutes but the actual running time is less due to commercials. The show features a roundtable discussing the day's football headlines and scores along with interviews, reports, and highlights mostly involving Mexican football such as Liga MX and the Mexico national football team but also cover European football leagues and the UEFA Champions League.

Fútbol Picante is one of the most well-known, controversial and most viewed Spanish language sports shows both in the United States and Mexico.[3]

The show is filmed in ESPN's Mexico studios in Mexico City.

In 2018 the show won the Sports Emmy Award for Outstanding Studio Show in Spanish.

History

The show debuted on January 7, 2004, the day ESPN Deportes launched.[4] The very first episode of the show was hosted by Heriberto Murrieta with former footballers Carlos Hermosillo and Carlos Reinoso as analysts. In 2007 and 2008 many well known analysts such as José Ramón Fernández, David Faitelson, Rafael Puente, Carlos Albert and Héctor Huerta joined the show.[5]

Since July 2013 a midday edition of the show with a different format airs weekdays featuring younger journalists. Unlike the late night edition, women often appear in the studio as analysts along the men. The show is often nicknamed "Fútbol Picante, Jr." by the hosts.[6][7]

For nearly 12 years the show was filmed in ESPN's Mexico original studios in Tlalnepantla de Baz, Mexico. The show along with all of ESPN Mexico's studio shows were moved to ESPN's new studios in the Mexico City borough of Tlalpan in January 2016. The first episode filmed in the new studios aired on January 4, 2016 with C.D. Guadalajara owner Jorge Vergara and Guadalajara manager Matías Almeyda as guests.[7][8]

Due to the airing of Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN Deportes, the show airs on tape delay in the United States on Sundays during the MLB season.
