Biography
One of the best defenders in Mexican football in the second half of the 1990s and the first half of the 2000s. In the Mexican national team - the winner of the Confederations Cup 1999, twice the winner of the CONCACAF Gold Cup, twice participated in world championships and America's Cups .

During the 2005 Confederations Cup , after a match with the Brazilian national team , doping was discovered in the blood of Carmona. This scandal eventually forced the football player to end his career in the national team, but the club career lasted a short time. In 2007, he announced the completion of a football career. In subsequent interviews, he accused the leadership of the Mexican Football Federation that they set him up and knew in advance that his doping test could be positive.
