Dissapointed With A Win

This game was disappointing, no? There were two goals, but the team didn’t play very well. As always there were plenty of chances but no one there to score. This isn’t looking too good.

There were two goals. One was a penalty at the end of the first half, which frankly, I don’t think it should have been called. I’ve been looking at replays and I still don’t see it. Anyways, Luis Noriega stepped up and scored giving Mexico the 1-0 advantage.

In the second half things weren’t looking good either. It wasn’t until the 85th minute that Mexico scored a goal on their own. Medina sent in a cross and Barrera was there to put it in for a 2-0 win.

Again, I don’t think there’s much to say about this game. The team has been severely disappointing these past few games. Yes, the defense has kept clean sheets, but really? It’s been against “little” teams so they shouldn’t exactly been celebrating that fact.

Something that’s very unfortunate is Vela’s injury. He’s been having trouble scoring, but with this injury, it looks to dampen his confidence perhaps. Hopefully he recovers.

Next up is Panama on Thursday for which I’m predicting a similar game. The team will play in Houston at the Reliant Stadium.
