Originally posted by O-ZoNe View PostWe musta seen different games. Parking the bus is maintaining less than 40% possession and repelling waves of attack. Not playing from defense up, controlling and at times dominating play in your opponents half...they played a defense first strategy but used fast breaks to exploit Germany's offense only mentality.

As for watching different games, you may want to go back and watch the game again and listen to the number of times both commentators kept saying that Mexico cannot maintain this super defensive strategy (aka, park the bus) :-) . they must have said it at least 6 times in the 2nd half alone
as for counter attacks, yes, that is usually the outcome when you park the bus. We had a number of those against Argentina, Dejagah's non-penalty call, Gucci's header, etc .....“It is easier to fool the people, than to convince them they have been fooled." - Mark Twain

I think Mexico played an open counter attacking game with much success, ( atleast from the highlights ). Great game by Mexico! i knew they would beat Germany but was still a little bit skeptical but now they have all the chance to advance. its make it or break it for the Mexican National Team!
