Okay...and the like I said, the US had its chances too. US had the more clearer opportunites.
Even Blanco, of all the players, said US is the #1 team in the CONCACAF.

Yep. I just read it too. How sweet :D ...finally one of your guys gives us credit...not the typical "The better team lost today" although Hugo did say that today.

ck... I agree with you that players from the U-20's team tend to only give out a small number of players to the major teams (unless you are argentina, where Messi, Tevez, D'Alessandro, Aimar, Riquelme, Gago, Mascherano, Cambiasso where all members of different U-20 teams that won the WC). But the difference to other teams that have been going on in the history of the Mexican team, is that now we are exporting players while before we werent.
I mean right now Pardo and Osorio just won a championship in the Bundesliga, Salcido did the same in Eredivisie with PSV, Rafa had a down year with a lot of injuries, but he is still with Barca, as is Gio, and Vela is in Arsenal. That is not to count that there is a kid playing in Slovakian football, and Cardozo is in Olimpiakos, and Guardado is getting interest, Ochoa too, Bravo was going to go too, there is a kid in Chile, there is another one in spanish soccer (though I doubt he is going to want to play with us since he is a spanish national too).
You know as well as I do that the only way to get better in this game is if the best players on your team are moving to play in Europe, that had never happened in the history of the Mexican game, and it is really happening now. So if you where to ask me what is the difference between that established mexican record and now, it is that we are in Europe, we are doing well in Europe, and more of us will be going to Europe.

they did, but I am not going to say that jugamos como nunca y perdimos como siempre. This team could play way better than that. The back line looks completely disorganized (though Marquz is definetely an improvement over Maza) and they got back a little to fast on us, I mean Medina played horrible, Donovan had a free lane (took advantage of it very little, but still that is how they got us).
guardado shouldn't have stayed in. If he was going to be moved in a stretcher, that means he had a concussion or worse, he should not have stayed in, you could tell his game suffered, and once the Guardado/Nery thing was not working any more, then the whole thing sort of caved in for us. We needed Bofo in for him, we where playing 4-3-3 anyways.

yes... I am... dang I hate when I do bets... I should never bet when Hugo Sanchez is involved.

Yeah. I like the way Bofo plays. Es peligroso...but Sanchez but him and Blanco in wayyyy too late.

I just found out Guardado did go to the hospital after the game, terrible decision by the medical group and Hugo.
And yes this team has a lot more potential and should be playing better no matter who the coach is, about the defense I don't like Magallon (he could be a beast in Chivas but I'm not seeing it here) he was getting owned by Ching all game long.

I am not complaining. I am not justifying anything, it was a good win and it was a great game. And flopping is part of the game, but did you really feel that was a penalty?

:rofl: True that. Watch you guys somehow do very well in Copa America..maybe even win...then you go to Confederation Cups too...or imagine if we somehow meet again in La Copa America. :eek:
I was wondering if should make it Onyewu owning a Mexican or the US hoisting the trophy. I am probably going to go with the TEAM because it was a team effort :)
Quelonio

you should go with Nery owning Onyewu for the first goal... me thinks....
