Just in Azteca, though I don't know if the US has played at any other Mexican venues since it opened. Never mind, that's wrong. It's usually the Azteca stat that gets tossed around.
Mexico hasn't lost at the Azteca to anyone in a while, I believe. Think opposing teams have trouble breathing there.
They mentioned they have lost only 8 times from over 100 matches. The last was Uruguay like 4 years ago. Pretty crazy. Good first half, we are where we want to be.
I still can't see Brek Shea and not see the blonde caddy kid from Happy Gilmore. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!
Wow. That was evidently a really big deal. Somehow the broadcast made it seem like the conclusion of an NFL preseason game. Was that just me? Not a lot of excitement for the first victory ever.
But did the coverage not fall woefully short of conveying that? This sounds like it was the '98 Florida game, but if I didn't know the backstory I'd think 2003 Duke game.
I think some of them were literally lost in the moment- they didn't foresee this happening and all they could do is repeat the same things.
If the '98 Florida game had been a scrimmage in Gainesville where we had Jamal Lewis, Deon Grant, and Al Wilson sitting out with injuries. The exhibition nature detracts a tad. But it's still absolutely historical, and it came with a seriously weakened USA side. We started bloody Castillo, Cameron, and Edu on the backline and didn't give up any goals. I still can't wrap my mind around it. Also, Orozco Fiscal, I have forgiven you for Beijing 2008.
