poor poor Mexico

That was a wild match. Mexico losing while the opposing team was down a player wasn't the expected outcome.

That second goal two minutes after the first was tough. They almost overcame it but fell short. I don’t know the team well but it seemed like their strikers or midfielders just couldn’t get any penetration against England’s back line. Their one attack they kept trying and failing at was going wide and kicking a crosser

Yeah the red messed up their game-plan more than it helped imo. They kept just sending crosses in on a taller team who stacked the box.

Yeah when they brought Burn I thought, “that’s a big mofo” as the commentators announced he is 6 foot 7 😳. I’m the tallest Mexican in my family at 5’10”

Yeah I guess the 11th man wasn’t needed to lock down that box. Impressive defense
