    6 minutes in and it is already shaping up to be a great game. Hope this pace keeps up.

    I usually pull for all the CONCACAF teams before the rest of the world ... heck, I pull for the South Americans before the Euros.

    But, my finace's dad is from Mexico ... and he's cool as fuck.

    VAMOS MEXICO!

    I completely forgot about that, yeahhhhh that changes things a bit. My thing is that I would like to see Concacaf teams play well and represent this region.

    Edit: Beat me to it Jimed.
  • Nice open game this.

    Is it me, or are these refs favoring the French?

    Seems like the Mexicans are getting whislted on challenges the French are not.

  • What a dirty Bastard Toulalan is :twisted:

    Mexico had a decent chance to ctach them on the break then.

    The French...ungrateful. Like my history teacher in high school my senior year said, "We should've let Germany keep them."

    It is my opinion (and many other US fans) that CONCACAF, and particularly the US have had some terrible calls made against them in the WC that almost seem to be too terrible to be blamed solely on a blown call. FIFA does not really want a CONCACAF team to win the WC unless that team happens to be hosting it, IMO.

    Argentina and South Korea was a great, great game. The scoreline is harsh against Korea as until they scored the third goal they were right in it and they should have made it 2 - 2 at one point. South Korea will qualify i think.

    Greece are lucky, until that sending off they were literally nothing. Worst team in the competition by far. A win won't save them tho, Argentina will destroy them (Sorry D)

    France v Mexico should be intersting. I think Mexico could win this one (I hope so). Mexico need this win more as they have yet to face Uruguay who are proving to be a decent foe. You would expect France even with all their problems to beat South Africa.
    Greece isnt the worst team of the world cup,the worst is the team after 2 games has zero points!!
    we play with heart and balls after they score and 70 minutes the ball was in their defence !!!who dare wins!!!and we kick them out of tournament!!ans Maradonna is a friend of mine and a pearl jam fan ,i sent him philly bootlegs as a gift and said to me they gonna give the win to Greece

    Sorry D but the best team don't always win.

    This ball is awful. They really could do with changing it. Too many shots going over the bar.

    It would be nice if every Mexican free kick didn't sail 30 feet over the goal.

    That goal is going to open this game up quite a bit.

    Fundamental rule of a defender: when possible draw opponents into offside trap but don't assume you're going to get the call and wait for the whistle!
  • C'MON MEXICO!!!!
