Still being biased as usual huh? Well no point arguing here, we'll let the kids do their thing and we'll see if you were right when its all said and done.
biased?? lol they tied Mexico 0-0 and 1-1 in 1 week in El Azteca... these boys know how to play.. one of the most talented and most attack minded U-20 teams I've seen to come out of Honduras. El Choco and Eddie Hernandez up top, Rubilio on the wing and Alex Lopez mannin the middle.. this is a serious squad. but like you said.. don't take my word for it, just watch for yourself when they take the field.
look at you getting all defensive. Why? Its the truth, you do tend to get a bit carried away when it comes to your NT. Oh and stop bringing up "ties" with Mexico to try and prove your point, because unlike you, I never said that Mexico was the best at anything, did I? So my U-20 doesn't have to prove anything. But yeah, we will see if your guys are as talented as you make them out to be.
I'm not being defensive?? I was proving my point. and since when was cheering for your national team make you bias?? smh. I guess everyone who roots for their team is bias too huh. cool story bro.
No, there's a difference between rooting for your NT and then what you do at times, but Meh. Whatever, enough of this. I apologize for being a prick. Which I tend to be most of the times. But Serisouly, I'm sorry. I hope we can have a more civilized conversation about our NT's as this tournament progresses.
All matches live on www.concacaf.com Tonight, the opening match between Guadeloupe and Canada (Group C at 8 PM) followed by Mexico vs Cuba (Group D at 10 PM).
Christophe Houelche got Guadeloupe up 1-0 on Canada. Halftime right now amd Guadeloupe have been the better team so far.
Canada have just turned things around.. Canada 2-1 Guadeloupe Guadeloupe look absolutely lost so far in the second half.
What did i miss? Left at the half where Guadeloupe dominated, it could of been 3-0 But it was 1-0. Came back in the 70' the score is 2-1 Canada. And for the rest of the game hardly any efforts at either end Canada just kept the possession.
When your up 2-1 what else do you need to do, but keep posession? Guadeloupe in the second half didn't do anything with the ball.. I MEAN ANYTHING. whenever they got the ball they'd try to either dribble past all of the defenders, or just long ball it. Not much creativity what so ever. The passing got sloppy and was pretty awful in the second half for The Guadeloupeans. When Canada scored... they kept it within Guadeloupe's half for long spells and Guadeloupe were playing some soft defending, which led to 2 goals in a span of like 12 minutes.
Im not knocking canada they did the right thing it was just kinda shocking. I guess you live by the long ball you die by it aswell.Cause in the 1st half the long ball kept coming and kept working
FT: Mexico 3, Cuba 0 1st Goal: Own Goal: Malblanche 2nd Goal: Pulido 3rd Goal: Davila we played like we usually do, we get plenty of Chances and for some reason or the other we miss the majority of them.. But hey, we won. so that's all that matters.
Imagine if they had El Cubito Torres he would be putting those in most definitely but i guess they are gonna keep him for the next cycle. Should have been at least 5-0 but its all good ill take 3-0 any day
Yes but the young Gwadaboys play their first major international tournament. Remember that the last Guadeloupe's appearance was in 1992! While Canada has him use to play this kind of competition.
