Agreed. Mexico took the game to Argentina in 2006 as well.

It does look a bit odd. I have the '06 away kit which was Navy blue
with white shorts. Outside the classic jersey, I like that one too.

1-0 to Argentina now... Tevez and Sanchez clashed for the ball, Messi got
the rebound and lobbed it towards the goal, with Tevez now clearly offside.
Instead of letting it go in, Tevez heads it... after a lot of complaints by
the Mexican players with the linesman, it seemed that the ref would call
back the goal (he even seemed to be talking in his little radio), but in the
end it stood.

That one was very nice indeed.

Even though Tevez was offside, Mexico needs to be careful to not lose
their heads. Lots of careless tackles by Marquez especially.

Gift by Osorio. Then he tries to pull down Higuain. Gonzalo rides the
tussling and makes no mistake. 2-0.

On the other hand, Romero continues to make his own life more
difficult than it needs to be. Palms away another speculative Salcido
shot from distance.

And now Osorio gifts Higua�n the second goal. A mis-hit side pass, which the
Argentinian took, dribbled Sanchez and pushed inside. Worse than Cerezo'82.

When I said these guys will win the WC, I was told it was anti-woofing. Even
the luck of champions is with them now.
