Nishimura was part of a program between the Japanese and Mexican federations to do a coach exchange program. The guy simply put fell in love with...
Yup, a Saudi win would have left only one spot remaining. As things stand all spots are mathematically open.
Saudi Arabia's result is a legendary upset. However, before that game Saudi Arabia hadn't scored more than two goals in one game in over a year. I...
If anything is reassuring about the Saudi Arabia game is that there is a huge likelihood of Saudi Arabia missing multiple players sue to injury...
Him getting treated the way he did by the USSF softened my opinion on him. Sure the dude took time off but earned his spot by having a solid Gold...
I agree. There was intensity and a hustle in the team that none of us had seen in a while. I think Mexico can take Argentina too. The pressure is...
They've had our number for a while. It is a short tournament and anything can happen. The universe and law of probability owes us a win.
When I see shit like this I'm reminded of the Menotti quote "de un futbolista talentoso, trabajando se puede hacer un atleta; de un atleta sólo se...
Stats don't lie and Tecatito has been one of the best mid season signings in La Liga. The dude has contributed 2 goals and four assists in 13...
They tend to have mostly domestic players. Iran and other Asian teams tend to have a few players in Europe. Granted I don't think Mexico should...
US fans and other observers are really underating Group B. England are good, Iran is no where near as bad as Saudi Arabia and there is a good...
Mexico gets them 2nd instead of first so that is a bit of a positive. They also face Suadi Arabia last in a game in which they might be eliminated...
A tough but accesible group.
The Yanks would probably beat New Zealand but it would have been fun to see them sweat in the playoff.
Disappointed by the result. The only positives is that the defensive looked good and there was an intensity to the team I had not seen in a very...
Sheeeeeit if Mexico beats the US tonight and Panama take care of business against Honduras I'm sure the Panamanian team might be thinking "Why not...
Has anyone done the math? Could Mexico end up in the Top seed if Portugal loses? Obviously, Mexico has to win their games.
USMNT fans have been insufferable lately. I think they will qualify but hopefully a Mexico win will make them sweat these last two games.
These qualifiers feel weird because Mexico isn't exactly in a bad position. Hell, on paper and considering the final games the USMNT's position is...
The last time I remember a day game at Azteca for the national team was the playoff against New Zealand in 2013. I doubt the federativos planned...
Damn, on paper the US has the hardest schedule of the Top 5 teams in qualifying right now. It's a shame I'm not too confident in Mexico beating...
I didn't see the Costa Rica game but what a disappointing result. Panama will bunker for dear life and will be happy with a tie on Wednesday. We...
Yeah, I still think the disallowed Moreno goal was onside. Like I've seen calls with the VAR go both ways but it seemed like a goal.
Mexico held it together and were able a win after being down against Jamaica and getting a draw against Panama. I think this team knows that even...
Without Pepi the US is sitting on 5 points tops. I'm not judging his professional decision either. I think he saw the US striker pool was easier...
