US-Mexico (R)

[KC McElroy]

US's B team defeated Mexico's full national team 2-0.
Mexico's scoreless streak outside of Atzeca against the US over the last 11 games continues.

[Club monaco]

U.S national team was missing Beasley, Cherundolo, and Onyewu, arguably three of their top players, as well as players like Pearce and Gibbs while Mexico called up nearly all of their European based players including Marquez.

Add to that the crowd was 65,000 strong and largely pro-Mexican.

Mexico has no class guys. After the second goal it looked like the Mexican keeper Sanchez tried to slide tackle one of the US players AND the Mexican team didn't shake hands after the game.

I don't know why the Mexicans talk so much shit about the USA...since 200o they are 0-7-1 againt the US in America and haven't even scored a goal!

[ird28]

who is mexicos coach now?

they could only keep up in worlds elite because of their tactics, they thanks to their coach (forgot his name)

[KC McElroy]

Hugo Sanchez.

This was actually his 2nd defeat against the US, the 1st one coming in 2000 by 3-0 when he took over in the real coach's absence (I forget who he was at the time).

Yikes this had gotten by me during the game but now I that i see it I think that Mexican keeper should be banned for some time for that off the ball intentional slide tackle on Johnson which if he had been able to conenct could have done serious damage. What a sour loser.
Here is the picture and video of the incident.

That was disgusting by Sanchez. Sore loser, I tell you if that had been a competitive game and the ref saw such a blatant lunge, a red followed by a ban would have been the right thing to counter such a beyghairat show.

Good goals by USA though. The first was poor marking by Mexico which USA pounced on, the second some decent skill by Donovan.

Seems to me Mexico cant just win in USA, despite the majority of the crowd being their supporters.

[Demis-11]

Olympiacos' Neri Alberto Castillo was at the game, there was a dilemma for the last few months whether or not hed choose to play for the Greek or Mexican NT, it appears he will become a member of the Mexican national side

[KasraKhan]

US completely owns Mexico

[Darvish11]

the worst part of the game was when america scored that goal and sanchez dove for it the EXACT same way he saved hashemians header except the other way...i cringed

he is a G tho, i think im like the only person who likes to see that kind of stuff...but only from teams i dont care much for. Like if karimi or kaka did that i would be furious. Now its just funny.

Medina for mexico is really good, shouldnt have taken him out. Guardado is good 2. If Cuatemoc blanco was like a few mph faster he would be in europe despite his age.

Thats true, he did try to trip him.

what a bunch of haters, i so wish we didnt lose to them like that. They certainly didnt deserve such a big 3-1 win agianst us.

Can anyone here translate Spanish to English? Check this out:

[Pharaoh]

“Me vale madre lo que digan, que chinguen a su madre”. Any translation would be appreciated.

"Mother is worth me what say, that chinguen to her mother." Courtesy: freetranslation.com.

This would make a great signiture.

Just out of curiosity, has the US ever beat a predominately Muslim nation? And Oswaldo is a *****.

[PersianMadrid7]

The US NT team is a bunch of a**holes. In the WC vs Italy it was basically a blood bath after the arrogant US players "played".

Mexico has class, they have amazing talent, a player in the best club on the planet currently and a lot more potential against the US.

That dive trying to trip the US player was disappointing, but then again you don't know why it happened.

Mexico beat us in the WC, we are pissed about that of course, but how can that possibly make you on the US side. That's whats confusing me.
