FT: GERMANY 0 - 1 MEXICO: Match thread
Both are better going forward than keeping it tight, so hopefully will be a decent game.
One to watch is Hirving Lozano on the wing for Mexico, has a brilliant season for PSV and could bag himself a nice to a bigger league
Edit- shearer has just said pretty much the same thing, so I take it back.
Re: GERMANY v MEXICO: Match thread
We need to play like this next season.
Re: GERMANY v MEXICO: Match thread
It seems to me that Mexico are playing in a similar way to City under Warnock, that is win the ball and get it forward as quickly and directly as they can.
Now Mexico are getting the plaudits by the pundits whilst City get slaughtered for our style.
I can’t work that out.

Like us on a good day, against a side who aren't being as naive/arrogant as the Germans are we aren't always as fun to watch

Mexico I think could regret some of these poor final balls.

You just know it’s coming
Re: GERMANY v MEXICO: Match thread
Mexican keeper looks half decent, and that herrera fella
Re: GERMANY v MEXICO: Match thread
Hernandez is like a boy against men.
Brave effort but Mexico are spent. If you offered them 1-1 now I bet they'd take it.

The styles are not as similar as you think. Mexico, for example, have strung a series of passes together that extends beyond 4.

I'm not so sure, I think they can hold on here.

A few of their games on TV. They played twice in a week on Sky and the most passes I counted in a sequence was 5 over the two games.
