2 teams showed up... one came in hoping for a win...and the other Knowing it was going to win.... Bunkerball sucks and it doesnt play to our style but the bright side of things, we're learning how to better attack the bunkerball tactic; in time we will be able to beat it easily instead of having to put in lots of work. At the end of the day Guate' is going home and Mexico will still win it. Mexico will forget this game and it will live in history in Guate' how they won the 1st half. but Guate' not all is lost see you guys in 2014
You're right. The reason this game was so close was because BigSoccer's Gold Cup forum's community was putting too much pressure on Mexico and players like Chicharito and Marquez just couldn't handle our expectations. I apologize on behalf of everyone, bro
I understand your diplomatic/respectful angle towards the rival in regards to this thread... Pero no recontramames! What about the foul on De Nigris in the penalty area that the ref didn't call? You, sir, is the one that needs to stop bitching.

It's always Mexico's biggest threat in any game with any national side, If we go down a gol early so does our play. If it wasn't for that early goal, i believe we would of played like everyone was expecting. But as soon as someone get's the first goal, and especially early - Its tough for us to get are minds over it for some reason.
Simply because our team hasn't been in a good shape on the last encounters ?but really you make it seem like Honduras is superior . Guatemala did bunkered , Its an annoying tactic but Id say it just doesn't work . Specially in Guatemalas situtation Mexico kept attacking attacking attacking and closing in . All central Americans use that tactic and works on some games but most of the time it doesn't .
